Project Overview
A. Project Description
This renovation would be in support of the College's Engineering Technology programs in our Engineering Technologies
building. The two main ones would be a new Mechanical Engineering Technology (MET) program and a revised Electrical
Engineering Technology (EET) program. This would include creating the lecture and lab space for the MET program. The
lecture space is shared among all programs but the lab space would be specifically for MET, including lab space for material
science, strength of materials, metrology, and quality control. There would be updates to the existing EET labs which are very
outdated, to ensure curriculum and labs are representing a current modern manufacturing environment. Additionally, there
would be an integration lab where various disciplines collaborate in a capstone type course working in a simulated
manufacturing setting. There is also a FAB lab or "Maker Space" that will be used to build prototypes and prove out concepts
as well as providing a space to help entice or motivate youth into STEM careers. The renovation will also include new windows
and updating the building restrooms and various finishes.
This project will likely have to be done in phases as the entire ET building needs renovated and we only have received a small
portion of funds that will do a portion of the project with this time around. As part of the requested design services, we need to
define what the entire project will entail and then phase it according to the funds we have remaining in this project and for
phases beyond that. Firms will have to develop a POR by pulling together the appropriate faculty and staff.
B. Scope of Services
For projects advertised with an appropriately developed Program of Requirements ("POR"), upon award of the
Agreement, commence with Design. For projects without such a POR, upon award of the Agreement, commence by

clarify with the Owner and/or the Contracting Authority, the cost breakdown of the A/E Agreement detailed cost
components to address the Owner's project requirements. Participate in the Encouraging Diversity, Growth & Equity
(EDGE) Program as required by statute and the Agreement.
