Addendum 1.docx

This is Addendum 1 to a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) issued by the Colorado Department of Human Services (CDHS) for the Enhanced Protective Placement Unit project at the Colorado Mental Health Institute at Pueblo (CMHHIP), RFQ 2027000004. The addendum addresses three key clarifications regarding the project scope: confirmation that hazardous materials testing and associated remediation costs will be performed outside the project scope, clarification that Cottage 137 is currently licensed as a hospital under I-2 occupancy classification and will be converted by CDHS to an Interim Care Facility (ICF) designation, and identification of the expected timeline and any design or construction constraints resulting from this licensing change.

The addendum requests that CDHS provide existing documentation for Cottage 137 to bidders, including architectural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, structural, and site plan drawings in PDF, AutoCAD, or other electronic formats. This clarification indicates that bidders need access to comprehensive existing facility documentation to develop accurate proposals and cost estimates for the protective placement unit conversion project.
