ARCHITECTURE + PLANNING PROPOSAL October 29, 2019 City of South Bend 227 West Jefferson Blvd. South Bend, IN 46601 Re: Technology Resource Center Suites 140 & 160 Dear City of South Bend, On behalf of EPOCH, I would like to thank you for giving us the opportunity to present to you this proposal for professional services regarding a tenant build out for the City of South Bend at the new Technology Resource Center at Catalyst 2. We understand your goals and will act on your behalf to ensure the project is delivered with that single focus. Being good stewards of your resources, we will continue to balance our time required with the results you expect with this project. PROJECT SCOPE We understand that you would like Epoch to provide design services to facilitate all phases of design for a tenant build out for the South Bend Code School at the Technology Resource Center Suites 140 and 160. These phases will include Design Development, Construction Documents, Bidding, and Construction Administration. To produce a finished and completed design Epoch will work with Great Lakes Capital/Bradley Company, City of South Bend, and all other necessary consultants and specialists to provide a set of construction documents that can be submitted for permitting reasons and can be bid. It is our understanding the proposed build -out will not be required to go through the City's Public Bid process. EPOCH's scope of work will include architectural, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing drawings for TRC Suites 140 and 160 based on the City's program which was defined to us as an open office concept with an exposed structural ceiling w/ suspended LED light fixtures. It is our understanding, based on our work on the Technology Resource Center, the electrical service and existing rooftop equipment servicing the existing suite(s) is adequate for the build -out. We will verify conditioning capacity of the existing rooftop units based on the new occupancy use of the space. We understand that new ductwork from the existing rooftop HVAC equipment will need to be included, however, replacement of main building systems, and additional mechanical and electrical equipment design is excluded from the scope as additional services. 300 W Jefferson Blvd., Suite 200, South Bend, IN 46601, P: 574-307-9990
