Identify the area of a site required to fulfiJl the needs of the facility. > Determine the probable construction costs for a facility and related site improvements. l\Iethodolol!v: Over the years, TKDA has accumulated a strong background and has gathered base line information on many Public Works and Maintenance facilities. Given the seemingly infinite number of methods of operating Public Works departments and facilities, we find it imperative to work with the emolovees to develop the program and space needs analysis which will reflect their own specific operation methodology. In order to accomplish the objectives listed above, we will perform the following tasks for this Project: > Prepare a questionnaire/checklist for each of the user groups. This questionnaire will request pertinent information on methods of operation, staffing, space needs, and operational relationships, These questionnaires will be given to each user group before meeting with them. > Meet individually with the staff of each group to complete the questionnaire/checklist, and discuss their operational activities and space needs. This meeting will review current space usage, needed space requirements, work methodology and special needs, ,.. TKDA will then collate all the information; prepare a program reflecting the preliminary square foot needs, amenities and site requirements. Included will be proximity and relationship diagrams. > Meet with the staff to review and revise the program. ;;.. TKDA will then prepare a schematic site plan and facility plan to illustrate the area required based on the space program. ;;.. Meet with staff to review the schematics and revised program data, ;;.. Prepare a probable construction cost for the facility. > Prepare and present a draft repon documenting the process, the information gathered, and the recommendations. ;;.. Make revisions based on the draft repon, review and present the final Study to Management. Deliverable: The Space Needs Assessment repon will serve as the basis for the design of new facilities. It will incorporate the information needed for a consultant to work with the Ramsey County Public Works Depanment on the next step of design and implementation of the project.
