This contract establishes task order-based professional services to augment existing technical support personnel within the Division of Water on an as-authorized, as-needed basis in order to accomplish a wide range of work that may include but is not limited to planning, design, and construction phase architectural services.

· An evaluation and detailed design for HCWP Door Lock Improvements

The second modification/renewal is planned to be executed at that point.
