From the public record

The record behind the project

Maryland’s Board of Public Works approved item 27-CGL on June 9, 2004, for the Student Services Center, Phase II of Montgomery College’s Takoma Park expansion.

Its award schedule lists Partition Plus for three scopes: impact-resistant wall protection, metal lockers and fire-protection specialties. The original entries and approval are available in the linked meeting minutes.

A defined scope within a larger campus project

This record identifies our packages within the college project. It does not establish particular manufacturers, product quantities, installation dates or later building renovations.

A defined scope is also a useful starting point for your own project: identify each product package, its locations and its responsibilities before comparing proposals. The checklist below helps put those details together.

Planning guidance for a similar project

Turn a multi-package scope into a shared room schedule.

For a campus project with several specialty packages, start by connecting each product to its location and responsible trade. The guidance here is for planning a new project; it does not describe undocumented events on the college job.

List packages separately before comparing quotes

Create a line for each scope, with its specification section, selected product, quantity and room or corridor reference. Identify who supplies and who installs each item. Review exclusions and related work so the same item is neither omitted nor counted twice.

Resolve adjacent work before closing the walls

Put the product drawings beside the room plans and finish schedule. Ask the project team to resolve required backing, recesses, mounting locations and interfaces with nearby equipment. Use the selected product’s instructions and approved details; a broad package name is not an installation specification.

Connect receiving to installation and handover

Agree how packages will be labeled by location, where they will be stored, and who will accept delivery. Coordinate installation with finished surfaces and site access. At handover, retain product and care information with the room schedule so facilities staff can identify what was supplied.

A scope checklist for the project team

Bring these fields to the quote review and update them when the approved specification changes.

Send your plans for review
Package and location
Scope name, specification section, room references and quantities.
Wall protection
Mark protected walls and corners on the plan. Specify the selected profile, heights, lengths, finish and attachment method for the actual wall surface.
Lockers
Record bank dimensions, compartment configuration, lock selection, bases, finished ends and fillers. Check the complete run against the available space.
Fire-protection specialties
Identify the specified equipment and models. If cabinets are included, coordinate the equipment fit, surface or recessed mounting, wall opening and required wall details with the design team.
Product and approval
Manufacturer, model, configuration, finish and approved drawing revision.
Responsibility and interfaces
Supply, installation, backing and adjacent work, with a contact for each.
Receiving and handover
Delivery contact, staging area, installation sequence and records for maintenance.

Questions before you order.

Can one general Division 10 allowance define every product?

A budget allowance is only a starting point. Separate the actual product packages, locations and responsibilities, then compare proposals against that same list. A locker schedule and a wall-protection schedule need different product details even when they are part of one project.

What should I send if the product schedule is still incomplete?

Send the available drawings and specification, identify the unresolved items, and tell us your location and target schedule. Our team can review the requested scope without treating an undecided product or quantity as an approved selection.

Planning references and next steps

These manufacturer examples help identify the decisions in a new product schedule. They do not identify the brands or models used on the historical college project. Use the instructions and approved details for your selected system.
