Instructions Request for Information - Design Build (Architect/Constructor) Instructions Request for Information - Design Build (Architect/Constructor) Letter – Notice of Intent & Statement of Contractor’s Qualifications Project Jeff Davis Hospital, Adult/Geriatric Notice of Intent March 27, 2017 Name Psych Unit Response Deadline Project 163 South Tallahassee Street Project Number Adult/Geri Psych Building Location City / Hazlehurst, GA 3153 Mark Renfro [email protected] County Jeff Davis County Submit the requested number of Statements of Qualifications directly to Mark Renfro, [email protected]. See Section H and “SECTION 2 – SCOPE OF WORK of the RFP for additional submittal instructions.” On-Line: www.healthiegeorgia.org/RFP DOCUMENTS A. Project Overview The Jeff Davis County Hospital Authority was established in 1959 because the community saw the need for a hospital in Jeff Davis County. Clyde Duncan Memorial Hospital opened August 8, 1963 with 26 beds. Soon all beds were full and there was a need for more space therefore the first expansion was completed in 1969 with the addition of 16 beds making the hospital a 42 bed facility. Again, due to high occupancy and the need for additional bed capacity in 1972 there was a second expansion adding 14 beds, Business Office, Laboratory and Conference Room. Jeff Davis Hospital now had 56 beds. In 1993 the third expansion was completed which created a new Emergency Department, Laboratory, Pharmacy, ICU, Chapel, ICU Waiting room, X-ray Department and Medical Records Department - the largest expansion thus far. This expansion eliminated six beds reducing the facility to a 50 bed hospital. In 1994 plans were started to become a Joint Commission accredited hospital and completed in 1998. In 2004 Jeff Davis Hospital became a Critical Access Hospital with 25 beds. B. Project Description - ADULT/GERIATRIC PSYCHIATRIC UNIT Psychiatric patients requiring hospitalization often have medical problems as well. It’s a complicated situation that calls for extraordinary measures. Jeff Davis Hospital would be able to respond with a comforting environment designed to put these patients at ease. Our care environment is designed to resemble a lovely home or inn, rather than a hospital. Behind the scenes, a specially trained multi-disciplinary team works to evaluate mental and physical needs, coordinate care, and apply our array of resources. Jeff Davis Hospital Adult/Geri-Psych Unit Scope of Work - The scope of work will be new construction of an Adult/Geri-Psych Unit south of the hospital with approximately 8,000 sq. ft. wing as follows: • Construction of a new 10 bed Adult/ Geri-Psych unit with associated staff and patient support space, dining area, activity/group areas, business office space and facility support spaces • Design Build Design & Construction of the In-Patient Adult/Geri-Psych unit totaling approximately 8,500 sq. ft. • Fixtures, Furnishings and Equipment for the In-Patient Adult/Geri-Psych unit totaling approximately 8,500 sq. ft.

    Information Scaffolding: Application to Technical Animation By Catherine Claire Newman a dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in ENGINEERING – MECHANICAL ENGINEERING in the GRADUATE DIVISION of the UNIVERSITY of CALIFORNIA, BERKELEY Committee in Charge: Professor Alice Agogino, Chair Professor Dennis K Lieu Professor Michael Buckland FALL, 2010 Information Scaffolding: Application to Technical Animation Copyright © 2010 Catherine Newman i if you can help someone turn information into knowledge, if you can help them make sense of the world, you win. --- john battelle ii Abstract Information Scaffolding: Application to Technical Animation by Catherine C. Newman Doctor of Philosophy in Mechanical Engineering University of California, Berkeley Professor Alice Agogino, Chair Information Scaffolding is a user-centered approach to information design; a method devised to aid “everyday” authors in information composition. Information Scaffolding places a premium on audience-centered documents by emphasizing the information needs and motivations of a multimedia document's intended audience. The aim of this method is to structure information in such a way that an intended audience can gain a fuller understanding of the information presented and is able to incorporate knowledge for future use. Information Scaffolding looks to strengthen the quality of a document’s impact both on the individual and on the broader, ongoing disciplinary discussion, by better couching a document’s contents in a manner relevant to the user. Thus far, instructional research design has presented varying suggested guidelines for the design of multimedia instructional materials (technical animations, dynamic computer simulations, etc.), primarily do’s and don’ts.

  • Leaks, Sabotage, and Information Design∗
    Leaks, Sabotage, and Information Design∗ Aaron Kolby Erik Madsenz February 2, 2019 Abstract We study optimal dynamic information disclosure by a principal to an agent of uncer- tain loyalty who may engage in hidden undermining, for instance through damaging leaks or sabotage. The agent requires information to correctly perform a task but may also covertly commit destructive acts which are only stochastically detectable. The principal optimally provides inconclusive incremental guidance until a deterministic time when the agent is deemed trusted and given a conclusive final report. Disloyal agents are never given incentives to feign loyalty, and in the unique time-consistent implementation undermine with variable, non-monotonic intensity over the lifetime of employment. JEL Classification: C70, D82, D83, D86, M51 Keywords: information leaks, sabotage, principal-agent model, information design 1 Introduction An organization has found itself the victim of information leaks and sabotage. Sensitive documents have been leaked to the media, corporate secrets have been sold to competitors, obscure vulnerable points in production lines have been discovered and sabotaged. An insider with access to privileged information must be undermining the organization | but who? Halting the distribution of sensitive data would staunch the bleeding, but also leave employees paralyzed and unable to act effectively. Limited information could be circulated ∗The authors thank Laurent Mathevet and seminar audiences at Brown University and the 2018 NSF/NBER/CEME Conference at the University of Chicago for helpful conversations. yDepartment of Business Economics and Public Policy, Kelley School of Business, Indiana University (Email: [email protected]). zDepartment of Economics, New York University (Email: [email protected]).

Carver Howard M. Bloom Factory Automation Systems Division Manufacturing Engineering Laboratory National Institute of Standards and Technology Gaithersburg, MD 20899 ABSTRACT Concurrent engineering involves the integration of people, systems and information into a responsive, efficient system. Integration of computerized systems allows additional benefits: automatic knowledge capture during development and lifetime management of a product, and automatic exchange of that knowledge among different computer systems. Critical enablers are product data standards and enterprise integration frameworks. A pioneering assault on the complex technical challenges is associated with the emerging international Standard for the Exchange of Product Model Data (STEP). Surpassing in scope previous standards efforts, the goal is a complete, unambiguous, computer-readable definition of the physical and functional characteristics of a product throughout its life cycle. U.S. government agencies, industrial firms, and standards organizations are cooperating in a program.

In terms of visibility, its design and precision holds the primary importance for depicting the exact amount of information for the intended user. Every minor decision taken for the designing of UI can contribute to the software both positively and negatively. Therefore, our study is intended to highlight the strategies that are currently being used for successfully designing UIs, and make appropriate suggestions for betterment of UI designs based on case studies and research findings.
