Attn.: Ms.Angel Barnes
Assistant Director,Asset Management Services
Dear Ms. Barnes:
FEE PROPOSAL: Justice Facility
Smith Sinnett Architecture greatly appreciates the opportunity to provide Orange County with a proposal
for Architectural Design & Engineering Services for the Justice Facility renovation project,located at 104
East Margaret Lane, Hillsborough, North Carolina.
SCOPE OF WORK:
The Justice facility upgrades are to include new LED recessed lighting,if feasible in the tight conditions
found above ceiling. Additionally, there will be furniture improvements within the Probate Office to
ensure greater privacy. The complete scope is still to be determined.
Given the accelerated timeframe, we will want to meet with stakeholders as quickly as possible.
Additionally, we will meet with you, the end users and the county commissioners and whoever you
designate to be a necessary part of this process.
We will provide per square foot cost estimating at the conclusion of the design development phase in
order to endeavor to stay within your budget. Please understand, pricing the work is extremely
challenging of late,and the fact that this project has a need for speed will likely increase costs. We will
use recent experience to provide you with a ballpark cost range with which you can move forward. This
cost, along with all architectural and engineering fees,are included within our overall fee.
PROGRAMMING/SCHEMATIC ❑ESIGNMESIGN DEVELOPMENT:
Smith Sinnett Architecture will work with and coordinate all members of the design team to evaluate the
owner's requests and begin developing an approach to design and construction of the proposed
improvements. During the programming phase, Smith Sinnett will meet with the owner's designated
stakeholders to fine tune our understanding of space needs and the eventual build out of the up fit. After
these conversations, we will develop a program and a preliminary budget. Initially, we expect to meet
with Orange County's Planning Department to assess and meet all requirements for approvals, During
the schematic design/design development phase we would anticipate attending meetings with the
owner to present design progress and collect owner feedback. We will meet with your reviewing
agencies as quickly as possible in order to assess the requirements for approvals in order to expedite
the project.

The following SDIDD portion is defined as the architectural, structural, plumbing, mechanical and
electrical work will be produced in Revit,therefore it is likely to be more detailed than a typical schematic
design phase and moves well into the design development phase. We assume the County will supply
conformed A/E construction documentation and that these drawings are accurate.
This phase shall produce documents that illustrate and describe the refinement of the project design,
establishing project scope,form,size,materials and appearance,as documented through plans,sections
and typical construction details.
CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS:
The construction documents shall be based on approved schematic design/design development
documentation and shall set forth in detail the requirements for construction of the project. These
documents may include, but not be limited to, floor plans, reflected ceiling plans, framing plans,
elevations, sections, typical wall sections, miscellaneous details and specifications sufficient for
permitting, cost negotiation and construction, Engineering fees are included and will be required for
permitting. Required engineering services will include structural,plumbing,mechanical,electrical,and fire
protection,
PERMIT ADMINISTRATION:
Based on previous discussions,and in light of the accelerated schedule, informal bids are anticipated at
this time. The architect will work with the builder and local jurisdiction to achieve a permit in as timely a
manner as possible,
CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION:
The Architect shall provide administration of the contract between the Owner and the Contractor. As a
representative of the Owner,the Architect shall visit the site at intervals appropriate to the stage of the
Contractor's operations, or as otherwise agreed by the Owner and Architect.Typically,we visit the site
once a week and whenever the need arises. The Architect shall not be responsible for the construction
means, methods, techniques, procedures, as these are solely the responsibility of the Contractor.The
Architect shall review contractor pay requests and advise the Owner as to their relative
completeness. The Architect shall review any contractor submittals, RFIs, ASI's, produce meeting
minutes, conduct monthly and preconstruction meetings and report all info to the owner and the
contractor to ensure that they are in keeping with the construction documentation. The architect
anticipates a not to exceed four-week construction period. If the construction period should exceed this
time frame, the Architect shall provide additional construction administration services as an additional
service, upon written approval by the Owner,
Smith Sinnett and our consultants will begin to set up project drawings that will be used throughout the
project. With each phase,the drawings will become more detailed and developed.
SCHEDULE AND DESIGN FEES:
We understand the quick schedule and we will d❑ all we can to accommodate this schedule. We can
begin immediately. We will attempt the following time frame, all of which will be dependent on quick
stakeholder decisions and timely agency approvals.
For full Architectural Design Services, based on a total project budget of thirty thousand eight hundred
ninety-seven dollars ($30,897), compensation shall be based on a fixed fee of three thousand ninety
dollars($3,090).
