The department of adult and juvenile detention has identified an immediate need for the replacement of existing lavatory fixtures located in detention cells on the seventh floor of the King County Correctional Facility as these fixtures may be used by an inmate against himself or herself in a manner that would threaten life safety, and the Department of Justice monitor has recommended that retrofits be performed immediately to address these issues
C. The facilities management division has procured fixtures through an existing, competitively procured supply contract that will address these issues.
D. The facilities management division has an existing contract in place with a contractor to perform highly prioritized security work at the King County Correctional Facility who has the expertise, experience, record of recent past performance, and previously-obtained security clearances to also perform the retrofit within the facility.
