College of Design Reading Room (111) and miscellaneous first floor office space (158, 158A)
In fall 2023, we had engaged the services of an architecture firm, DLR, to help us understand the potential scope of this project. This project scope is limited to interior remodeling on our first floor of the College of Design. In particular the scope includes the remodeling of critical spaces for our ongoing operations and course work. The biggest project is the remodeling the former "Reading Room" space (Parks Library is shutting down operations and moving stacks out of the space) into design studios/classrooms. The first phase of this project will not involve any major demolition, extensive interior partitions, or changes in lighting, electrical, HVAC, sprinkler, or plumbing. It will simply involve new furniture, finishes, and AV installations which we can accomplish working directly with FPM. Eventually, we may have more extensive remodeling, based on what we identify as our long term use needs for this space--again, with the assistance of an architectural firm.
There are other smaller miscellaneous interior remodeling projects to support our ongoing recruitment efforts (e.g., convert existing mailroom to open space space/waiting space for visitors, relocating mailroom elsewhere). Minimal changes in interior partitions and doors are necessary but not HVAC, electrical, sprinkler, etc. This will not require architectural services outside of the scope that FPM can provide.
Schedule Considerations
The ideal schedule for our Reading Room project m! ay not be possible--it depends, in part, on the timing of when Library will have all items moved out of our Reading room space (Room 111). Ideally if they move out by May, we can begin spending some of these funds towards the immediate reconfiguring of the space for our first phase of work. Similar timing for the mail room reconfiguration. Additional funds would be spent in Fall 2024 and Spring 2025 for architectural servi

CONFIDENTIAL PROJECT:
Please direct this request to Jenny Warrick.
Examine and create a scope of work, with budget and summer 2025 schedule for the welding, sanding, painting and dirt repair of the sculpture Sequence. Please further investigate any metal corrosion that is a potential health/safety issue if people climb on the sculpture.
Project is time sensitive and needs to be accommodated as feasible.
After scope of work is defined, coordination with EFCO, Josh Markle, project manager 515. 681.6769 will need to be addressed, as EFCO (DM based company) will likely do welding, sanding and painting of the sculpture under FPM supervison and campus access.
