Foreword
The material contained in the Supply,
Processing, and Distribution (SPD) Design Guide
is the culmination of a partnering effort by the
Department of Veterans Affairs Office of
Acquisition and Materiel Management and the
Facilities Quality Office. The goal of the Design
Guide is to ensure the quality of VA facilities
while controlling construction and operating
costs.
This document is intended to be used as a
guide and a supplement to current technical
manuals and other VA criteria in the planning of
SPD facilities. The Design Guide is not to be
used as a standard design, and use of this
Design Guide does not limit the project
Architects' and Engineers' responsibilities to
develop a complete and accurate project design
that best meets the users' needs and applicable
code requirements.
