Transcription of Chapter 7 Strategic Capital Investment Planning Process ...
1 2019 Congressional Submission 7-1 Chapter 7 Strategic Capital Investment Planning Process Project List Background VA prioritizes construction projects using the Strategic Capital Investment Planning (SCIP) Process , which began in 2010 and was first used in the 2012 budget cycle. SCIP is an innovative Department-wide Planning Process that results in the creation of a single, integrated prioritized list of projects from the following Capital Investment accounts: major construction; minor construction; and leases. SCIP is designed to improve the delivery of services and benefits to Veterans, their families, and survivors by addressing VA s most critical needs and/or performance gaps first, investing wisely in VA s future, and significantly improving the efficiency of VA s far-reaching and wide range of activities.
2 Integrated Priority List for 2019 The SCIP List The SCIP List in table 7-1, below includes all new major construction, minor construction, and lease projects reviewed in 2019, in priority order. VA s 2019 Capital request addresses the Department s highest Capital priorities. The SCIP List is also used to inform the development of the VA construction programs budget request. Projects with costs listed in the 2019 Funding Request column are included in this year s construction programs budget request. Lease projects have N/A listed in the 2019 Funding Request column because the final 2019 funds for these types of projects are contingent on contracting timelines and final funding allocations. The SCIP List does not include approximately $ million requested in 2019 for line items and below threshold minor construction projects and approximately $ million requested in 2019 that will fund the continuation or completion of projects initiated in a prior fiscal year.
3 See Capital Plan Chapter , VA Strategic Capital Investment Planning Process Overview, in the section titled Applying the SCIP Process to the Construction Programs Budget Request, starting on page , for details on how these pieces come together to develop the construction programs budget request. VA is requesting a new Major Construction line item account called Seismic Corrections. This account is intended to provide funding to correct critical seismic issues across VA facilities. The seismic program requests would be comprised of newly identified unfunded projects (from the SCIP List) and existing partially funded major construction, minor construction, and non-recurring maintenance (NRM) projects that meet certain criteria. The SCIP List was used to help identify new unfunded projects to be considered this year for funding.
4 The entire list of potential seismic corrections projects for this year can be found on page 2-75. 7-2 Strategic Capital Investment Planning Process Project List The SCIP Process was modified in 2019 to provide VISN Directors maximum input into the priorization of VHA NRM projects. NRM projects are now priorized using their own SCIP model, which places an emphasis on the VISN priority of the projects. A detail explanation of the NRM SCIP criteria as well as the NRM SCIP list is found in Chapter Table 7-1: Integrated Priority List for 2019 (2019 SCIP List) Capital Program Key: Major Cons.
