BACKGROUND INFORMATION
SBCFPD is a community-based, all hazard emergency services provider that is committed to providing the highest level of service in the most efficient and cost-effective manner to the citizens and communities it serves. For continued effective service, SBCFPD needs to establish a plan for fire station replacement and improvements over the next five to ten years. SBCFPD also has an objective to identify future facility needs beyond ten years.
Approval of the recommended CIP project will enable SBCFPD to proceed with the needed fire station assessments. The contractor selected for the Limited Conditions Assessment will visit 20 fire stations to visually evaluate the building systems. The contractor will be responsible for producing a report of its observations including identifying priorities and providing recommendations for future facility plans.
The Limited Conditions Assessment will enable SBCFPD to develop a sound fiscal plan for the following:
• Short-term and long-term improvements.
• Maintenance and lifecycle forecasting.
• Strategic planning to identify future needs.
The Real Estate Services Department - Project Management Division will manage this project for SBCFPD.
PROCUREMENT
Selection of the contractor for the Limited Conditions Assessment will be in accordance with the County’s procurement procedures.
