Integrated Automation System Submittals Procedure for Project

• General: Submit under provisions of Division 01. <Confirm that Division 1 will be provided> Two (2) copies of the materials shall be delivered directly to Owner’s representatives.  In addition, an electronic version of the completed materials shall be provided on electronic media.  Data can be in native file format or scanned where necessary.
• Functional Intent: Throughout the Contract Documents, detailed requirements are specified, some of which indicate a means, method or configuration acceptable to meet that requirement.  Contractor may submit products that utilize alternate means, methods, and configurations that meet the functional intent.  However these will only be allowed with prior approval.
• Electronic Submittals: While all requirements for hard copy submittal apply, IAS control submittals and operation and maintenance (O&M) information shall also be provided in electronic format as follows:
  • Drawings and Diagrams: Shop Drawings shall be provided on electronic media as an AutoCAD drawing per Owner’s CAD standards. All ‘x reference’ and font files must be provided with AutoCAD files.
  • Other Submittals: All other submittals shall be provided in Adobe Portable Document Format
• Qualifications: Manufacturer, Installer, and Key personnel qualifications as indicated for the appropriate items.
• Submit a list of no less than five similar projects, which utilize the Niagara N4 Framework <or equivalent (if required)> for Enterprise connectivity to provide an Integrated Automation System that consists of web-browser control and monitoring of the proposed N4 and/or <LONWORKS^®, BACnet, MODBUS> field level devices. These projects must be on-line and functional such that representatives from the Owner can observe the Integrated Automation System and Interface in full operation. Include proper references and contact numbers of these reference projects.
• Submit validation which indicates the successful completion of the Tridium Niagara N4 <or equivalent (if required)> certification course.
• Submit resumes of installing staff indicating passing certificates for training on the N4 and/or <LONWORKS^®, BACnet, MODBUS> line of field controls to be installed as part of this project. Also include prior Instrumentation and Control experience.
• Submit an organizational diagram indicating the key technical staff proposed for the project including Project Manager, Application Engineer, Programmers, Superintendent, Electrical Foreman, Electricians, and Technicians etc. Provide staff quantities to be assigned to the project. Provide contact information for Managers, Programmers, and Lead Technicians upon acceptance of bid.
• Submit a record of the number of personal employed by the System Integrator. This submittal shall clearly indicate the number of managers, technicians, electricians, and programmers certified in the line of DDC controls represented and certified in graphical user interface development and system network management. Also indicate the number of staff that will be assigned to this project.
• Provide certifications of all employed personal trained and certified by an Enterprise Network Infrastructure manufacturer (e.g. Honeywell WEBs) for GUI integration and development. Identify the number of integrators to be assigned to this project.
• The Contractor shall indicate the duration, in which the company has represented the line of controls proposed for this project. The Contractor shall also disclose all previous manufactures that have been or currently are represented over the last seven (7) years.
• GUI development software
• Provide screen captures of graphical user interfaces developed by the Contractor on previous projects. These screen shots shall represent work performed by the contractor and not of the company from the line of controls which the Contractor represents. Provide client contact information for the Owner to validate.
• Product Data: Submit manufacturer’s technical product data for each Niagara N4 Network Controller, control device, panel, and accessory furnished, indicating dimensions, capacities, performance and electrical characteristics, and material finishes.  Also include installation and start-up instructions.
• Products: Within <twenty one (21) days> after date of execution of General Contractor/Sub-Contractor agreement, submit for acceptance a list of all material and equipment manufacturers whose products are proposed, as well as names of all subcontractors whom the Contractor proposes to employ.
• Provide a list of devices in schedule form on 8½ x 11 sheets. The schedule shall be organized by columns to define all new devices to be installed as part of the IAS system <installation or upgrade> including the location, system served, controlling unit, model number, performance data, size, range, accuracy, span, operating pressure, etc. <Include the following as required>:
