The selected firm will be required to perform the full architectural and engineering services, including site plan, to be specified more fully in a contract agreement to be negotiated after selection. The contract agreement will provide for payment for phases of work completed with options to proceed through all phases or to discontinue work as the circumstances may dictate. Upon the initial selection of a Respondent based upon qualifications, with which negotiations will proceed, a Scope of Work will be developed. Lincoln County anticipates a contract which will include schematic and cost estimations for the project; however, Lincoln County reserves the right to include additional project elements in the initial or subsequent professional services agreements as Lincoln County may (in its sole discretion) deem appropriate. The selected firm will be required to retain and be responsible for all basic engineering disciplines such as mechanical, electrical, plumbing, fire protection, landscape architecture, civil engineering, and structural engineering as appropriate for the Scope of Work negotiated. The firm is also required to identify and select the appropriate subconsultants; however, Lincoln County reserves the right to approve proposed subconsultants that will be associated with each project. The awarded firm may be requested to: a. Attend meetings with the County Administrative staff as necessary b. Attend Board of County Commissioners meetings as necessary c. Consult with the County on budgetary and funding matters d. Consult with the County on project scheduling considerations
