Summary of Specifications:
The objective of this study is to develop a coordinated plan to meet facility needs of more than 40 departments and agencies in Ulster County in a manner that respects multiple objectives of costs, agency mission, long term efficiencies, interdependencies of place, public and program, and community development. The Study shall provide for a better way to plan for and develop new owned or leased space as well as maintain existing buildings to extend their useful life and functionality.
The study will provide an overall facility management scenario that answers key questions that include: the current situation, forecasting future space needs, updating facility standards, management of facilities, planning new leased or owned facilities, and where departments will be located.
Ulster County currently owns approximately 430,000 sq. ft. of space in 18 buildings at 11primary site locations. The County also leases approximately 73,500 sq.ft. in 16 buildings. These numbers do not reflect the space utilized by the Ulster County Community College, new Law Enforcement Facility or that occupied by the Infirmary and Health Related facility. The study will not address these facilities.
The fixed-fee for this project is not to exceed $150,000. The COUNTY reserves the right to reject any or all proposals associated with this work.
