INTRODUCTION

SECTION 1 - INTRODUCTION

1.1 The purpose of this Leased CBOC Standard Layout Guide is to provide the lease offeror with the VA’s facility standardization philosophy to be used in conjunction with the more detailed Prototypes for Standardized Design and Construction Community-Based Outpatient Clinics (referred to in this document as the CBOC Prototype Design Guide). With this layout guide and the prototype design guide, the offeror will be able to lay out the VA’s Program for Design (PFD) in the offered space for efficient use by the staff and Veterans. The offeror may also reference the VA Leasing Room Templates for typical rooms in a leased CBOC to gain an understanding of the typical room dimensions and equipment layouts. VA Leasing Room Templates can be viewed in the online VA Technical Information Library. 1.2 Project specific adjacency requirements may be in the Agency Specific Requirements Appendices) and shall requirements of this standard layout guide.

1.3 Facility Standardization Philosophy

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) seeks to create outpatient clinics that are familiar, functional, and efficient for Veterans and staff nationwide. This is achieved through standard design modules that allow for uniformity in clinic appearance and operations. However, recognizing the diverse realities of leased buildings and regional needs, the VA supports flexible implementation of these standards to best adapt to local constraints and opportunities. Leased CBOCs are encouraged to maintain core spatial relationships and flow patterns, while adjusting layouts as necessary to fit within existing buildings.
