Renovation of an educational facility in Cleveland, Ohio. Conceptual plans call for the renovation of a educational facility.

Cleveland State University (CSU) invites qualified design firms to submit their responses to this Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for consideration to undertake the development of plans for the renovation and relocation of the anatomy lab. CSU aims to relocate the current anatomy lab from the Science Research building basement to Lab 310 in the IM Building. The project's primary objective is to convert Lab 310, which currently serves as a nursing simulation lab, into a fully functional anatomy lab. Key elements of the construction program should encompass the implementation of essential components, including, but not limited to: 1. Temperature Controls: Incorporation of suitable temperature control systems to ensure optimal working conditions within the anatomy lab. 2. Dissection Tables with Exhaust Chambers: Provision of dissection tables equipped with exhaust chambers to enhance ventilation and create a safer environment for students by effectively removing odors and fumes. 3. Updated Equipment: Integration of state-of-the-art equipment to support modern anatomical teaching and research requirements. 4. Upgraded Mechanical System: Enhancement of the mechanical system, as needed, to ensure the seamless and efficient operation of the facility. 5. Additional Back Door: Installation of an additional back door to facilitate the smooth transport of cadavers from the elevator to the designated room. 6. Security Access: Implementation of a secure access system, such as badge access, to maintain the integrity and safety of the anatomy lab.
