The Bristol County Sheriff’s Office seeks House Doctors to evaluate exiting conditions, prepare certifiable studies, final design documentation, and provide construction administration services for a variety of alterations, repairs, and general building upgrades. On-call design services may include but not limited to architectural upgrades, interior repairs, and site infrastructure improvements including mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire protection and security system upgrades. House Doctors will be subject to Criminal Offender Record Information (CORI) checks after they are selected by the Designer Selection Board to provide services to the Bristol County Sheriff’s Office facilities. CORI checks consist of obtaining information from the person coming into the facility such as their full name, address, date of birth, license number, and any prior arrests they may have had. This information is required via a form that is sent before entering the facility. Once the person’s background is checked, they are cleared to enter the facility. Building System Upgrades and Building Decarbonization: Repair and/or upgrade building systems that are at the end of their useful life and alternative systems that support the Commonwealth’s commitment to sustainable design. The design team is expected to identify and, where feasible, integrate carbon reduction strategies including, but not limited to, low/no carbon fuel sources, high efficiency measures, and renewable energy sources such as geothermal, solar and wind. The scope of work may include but is not limited to: 1. Investigating the nature and challenges or severity of the issues to be addressed under the task order. 2. Documenting existing conditions. 3. Recommending detailed repairs and magnitude of cost for such repairs, including energy costs, sustainability principles, expected remaining useful life of building systems and related life cycle costs. 4. Proposing alternate methods of repairs for resolution of the problem, including energy efficient and electrified alternatives. 5. Developing the preferred solution through schematic design and/or design development. 6. Preparing construction specifications and documents, cost estimates, and providing construction administration services
