VA-SEPS
The VA-Space and Equipment Planning System (VA-SEPS) is a computerized space and equipment planning tool for health care projects developed collaboratively by Department of Defense and the Department of Veterans Affairs.
VA-SEPS creates a preliminary, baseline space program, the Program for Design (PFD) based on the VA Space Planning Criteria, and an equipment plan/cost estimate for a health care project based on answers to input data questions, using a series of mathematical and logical formulas, driven by VA Space Planning Criteria and Equipment Guide List.
VA-SEPS was fully deployed in 2007 and regular content updated are provided to users who are registered and authorize to work on VA and DoD health care projects. Updates and other important information are provided via the SEPS-II Website.
