Johnson County Physical Plant
511 Capital Street Building Envelope Repairs
Johnson County is seeking price quotes and proposals for professional services from responsible
engineering or architectural firms for a project at 511 S Capital Street, the Johnson County
Sheriff’s Office/Jail.
The roof on the building is failing resulting in multiple leaks with every rain. The brick façade
along exterior of the entire structure is showing signs of cracking/movement and potential
failure. There are twelve R-22 AC units located on the roof that will be replaced at the same
time that the roof is replaced.
The scope of this project will include:
Design and specifications for a new single ply glued in place roofing system.
Design and specifications for replacement of 12 AC units which serve the second floor
(Jail). All the condensing units are located on the roof.
Design and specifications for stabilization of the failing brick façade of the building.
Development of plans and specifications ready for bid.
Construction management and coordination.
Johnson County intends to select and negotiate a contract or contracts resulting from this
solicitation with the responsible offeror(s) whose proposal(s) represents the best value to
Johnson County after consideration in light of the requirements and evaluation factors in the
solicitation. Past performance information, which Johnson County may obtain from other
sources, may be used for evaluating responsibleness and used in reaching a best value decision.
