January 4, 2024 City of Everett, Facilities and Property Management Everett HVAC Projects – Everett Station Engineering Services Proposal Page 3 Assumptions/Qualifiers 1. We assume that as-builts of the building and the mechanical and electrical systems are available, and are reasonably accurate. We have included time for field reviews of the buildings but not time to create as-builts of the existing systems. 2. Any past hazardous material surveys will be provided by the City. 3. Fire sprinkler and Fire alarm system work will be covered by a performance specification with design by the installing contractor. 4. No utility locates are included in our scope. 5. Our work is limited to systems inside the building footprint. 6. We assume that the existing electrical service is adequate to support to project work. 7. No unusual or detrimental conditions exist at the area of work requiring any analysis or design consideration by us (e.g. existing code violations, power quality issues, existing failed components, etc.). 8. Permit fees are not included. Note that the efforts to respond to resolve permit comments are included in this proposal. 9. Commissioning specifications are for code required commissioning (done by a firm independent of the installing HVAC/Controls contractor). Additional levels of project commissioning may be provided at the City’s request. 10. We will provide you AutoCAD as-builts (based on contractor mark-ups) at the completion of the project. 11. If there are city facility design standards we are to adhere to, we will be provided those in writing prior to us starting our design. 12. We assume that you will review our progress submittals and final design documents to confirm their design intent is being met. 13. No construction will begin or ordering of materials will begin until all permits have been obtained and permit comments resolved. 14. Project will not be bid until all permit comments have been resolved. 15. Support of a formal Value Engineering process is not included. 16. LEED and related processes are not included. 17. A calculation to evaluate compliance with the State Clean Building Performance Standard (CBPS) is included in the basic services. However, if a building does not comply with the CBPS , the efforts to identify and design these additional measures needed to comply are not included. These efforts, including Energy Modelling for the CBPS, are not included but can be provided if needed as an added service. We appreciate this opportunity to work with you; Let us know if you have any questions. Sincerely, Hultz|BHU Engineers Inc. Michael Tagles, PE Associate Principal Attachments: Hourly Rates, 1 page
