Renovation of a municipal facility in Austin, Texas. Completed plans call for the renovation of a municipal facility.

CPA's main office is in the Lyndon B. Johnson ("LBJ") Building, located at 111 East 17th Street, Austin, Texas. CPA requires a Sound Masking System to mask sounds and reduce perceptible noise on the LBJ Building's fourth floor. The Fourth Floor Plan of the Lyndon B. Johnson Building is included in this RFO as Exhibit A (LBJ Fourth Floor Plan) and provides the current layout of the Fourth Floor that includes approximately 20,000 square feet of open office spaces, conference rooms and other rooms and workspaces where ambient noise can create distractions or compromise privacy. CPA wishes to mitigate these environmental noise conditions by introducing a low-level, unobtrusive adaptable background noise into the environment to make distracting and disruptive sounds less perceptible. CPA uses VoiceArrest(TM) Project Management Software v.4.2 to monitor the sound masking systems installed on other floors of the LBJ Building. 08/08/23 Deadline for Submission of Questions (2:00 p.m., CT) 08/10/23 Release of Official Responses to Questions (or as soon thereafter as practical) CPA anticipates making a contract award to one (1) Successful Respondent for the Services.
