The City of Frankfort Police Department is seeking proposals to design and build a new police training and vehicle-storage facility.
- **Buyer:** City of Frankfort, Kentucky — Frankfort Police Department.
- **Project:** One turnkey facility using a Morton-style post-frame design. “Morton-style” describes the requested building type; the solicitation does not require Morton Buildings or another specific OEM.
- **Facility requirements:**
  - Approximately 2,500 sq. ft. clear-span tactical training bay, with recommended 20–24 ft. eave clearance, reinforced concrete slab, industrial flooring, and at least one 12 × 14 ft. overhead door. Future tactical training walls, doors, and shoot-house components are excluded.
  - Specialty-vehicle garage with three bays in the detailed specifications, including three insulated overhead doors at least 14 × 14 ft., electric openers and safety sensors, reinforced slab, 50-amp shore-power outlets per bay, LED high-bay lighting, compressed-air rough-ins, drainage, heating, and exhaust ventilation. Some RFP sections refer to a two-bay garage, so the bay count should be clarified.
  - Classroom for 50 people (recommended minimum 1,500 sq. ft.), ADA-compliant male and female restrooms sized for 50-person capacity, and two private offices approximately 14 × 14 ft. with electrical and Cat6 data connections.
  - Finished kitchen/breakroom with cabinetry, countertops, dual-basin sink, plumbing, and appliance utility rough-ins. Appliances are excluded and will be purchased separately by the City.
- **Work requested:** Design, engineering, itemized cost estimating, site preparation, permits, utility connections, and construction, including labor, materials, equipment, building envelope, interior buildout, HVAC, and drainage. Submit an execution schedule, relevant qualifications and licenses, references for at least three comparable projects completed within the preceding five years, and warranty information.
- **Cost estimate:** Include separate costs for the base structure and site preparation, garage, interior buildout, permits and utility connections, and contingency. No budget or contract value is stated; the value range below is an independent planning estimate.
- **Potential vendor reference:** Morton is referenced only as the post-frame building style, not as a required supplier. No other OEMs or vendors are identified in the opportunity.
