Main Street, Studio One, Bozeman, MT Sy 15 www.thinkl.com (406) 586-7020 ., ThinkOne is a Bozeman -based, full -service architectural firm with a strong focus on public -sector projects. We deliver design solutions that balance creativity, functionality, and long-term value. At the core of our practice is a simple philosophy: Put people first and exceptional projects will follow. For ThinkOne, this means understanding the people who work in, maintain, and interact with our facilities every day. Successful design begins with how a building is used —how people move through spaces, perform their work, maintain safety, and service systems over time. By focusing on operational needs, we create environments that are intuitive, efficient, and supportive of their missions. Equally important is designing for those who will maintain these facilities long after construction. Thoughtful material selection, durable systems, and clear layouts reduce maintenance demands, extend building life, and protect public investment. Buildings that are easy to use and maintain perform better, last longer, and deliver greater long-term value. ThinkOne has built a reputation for excellence through lasting relationships with clients, communities, and project partners. Our team brings deep experience to every phase of a project —from programming and planning through design and construction administration. This collaborative, hands-on approach promotes clear communication, accountability, and consistently successful outcomes. Over the past fifteen years, a significant portion of ThinkOne's portfolio has focused on public projects for governmental entities, often involving multiple user groups, secure environments, and complex operational requirements. Open communication and stakeholder engagement have been central to their success, allowing us to design buildings that support mission -critical operations while improving efficiency, safety, and user experience. For Kalispell Fire, we have assembled a highly qualified team of design professionals who share ThinkOne's service -driven philosophy. All of our consultants bring recent, hands-on fire station experience working alongside the ThinkOne team. We are confident that our collaborative approach, technical expertise, and dedication to client success will make us a strong partner in achieving your goals. Statement of Qualifications I ,ity of Kalispell - Fire Department J PROJECT EXPERIENCE I Community Design For more than forty years, ThinkOne has had the privilege of de- signing civic projects across Montana. We take pride in creating spaces that enrich the daily lives of the communities we serve. Architecture shapes the user experience —from the way one approaches a building to the tactile interaction with finishes, door handles, and stair rails. Every detail is thoughtfully considered to ensure each project is functional, engaging, and responsive to its context. Every project presents unique challenges, and we view these as opportunities to develop innovative solutions that balance practicality with thoughtful design. By carefully analyzing site conditions, user needs, and program requirements, we create buildings that are intuitive, efficient, and adaptable over time. Combining creativity with strategic problem -solving allows us to deliver architecture that stands the test of time —both visually and functionally. Sustainability is a guiding principle in all our work. Whether or not a project pursues formal certifications such as LEED, we aim to incorporate environmentally responsible strategies whenever fea- sible. From energy -efficient systems and water -saving measures to thoughtful material selection and indoor environmental quality, we seek opportunities to reduce environmental impact while im- proving long-term building performance. For ThinkOne, sustain- able design is not an add -on —it is integral to creating resilient facilities that serve communities for generations. 1 t� COMMUNITY DESIGN PROJECTS I Recent Projects * Designates Collaborative Project ThinkOne + TCA City of Bozeman, Bozeman Public Safety Center* Bozeman, Montana City of Bozeman, Bozeman Fire District, Stations 1, 2 & 3* Bozeman, Montana Bigfork Fire Station (Currently in Design)* Bozeman, Montana Yellowstone Club Public Safety Building* Big Sky, Montana Central Valley Fire District, Station 1* Belgrade, Montana Gallatin Gateway Rural Fire District, Four Corners Station* Four Corners, Montana Gallatin County Justice Center Bozeman, Montana Over the past decade, ThinkOne has designed numerous fire stations across Montana, including three for the City of Bozeman.

This collaborative process fosters constructive dialogue, enthusiasm, and a sense of ownership. For Kalispell Fire Station, our team will validate program requirements and review site constraints, considering square footage, apparatus access, and operational efficiency. Early in the project, we focus on defining priorities and establishing shared values to guide collaborative decision -making. This framework ensures informed, value -based decisions aligned with project goals. We recognize that providing design services in the Flathead Valley presents some logistical considerations due to the distance between Bozeman and Kalispell. However, modern communication technologies and virtual collaboration tools significantly reduce the impact of travel, allowing our team to maintain frequent coordination with project partners. In addition, ThinkOne is currently designing Bigfork Fire Station 31, with construction anticipated through spring 2028, which will require our team to regularly travel to the Flathead Valley for construction administration and site visits. This ongoing regional presence, combined with real-time construction monitoring tools, enables our team, owners, and contractors to track progress, address issues pro -actively, and ensure seamless project delivery. Successful fire station design also requires active engagement with a broad range of stakeholders, including department leadership, staff, municipal officials, and the broader community. We emphasize transparency and inclusive participation, tailoring engagement strategies through workshops, design charrettes, public meetings, online surveys, and social media outreach. These tools ensure all voices are heard and meaningful dialogue occurs. Equally important is integrating stakeholder input into the design. Our process builds consensus around priorities, balances diverse perspectives, and creates shared ownership of the final facility. By maintaining clear, accessible communication, we foster trust among partners and deliver a station that meets operational needs, reflects community values, strengthens civic pride, and stands as a lasting investment in public safety. Ar -� Statement of Qualifications I City of Kalispell - Fire Department I Design Considerations Emergency operations, particularly Fire Stations, must remain fully functional under the conditions that place the greatest demands on their services. Our approach prioritizes operational continuity, ensuring that critical functions are maintained regardless of weather or emergency conditions. Based on past experience, our team incorporates a range of proven strategies to aid in the functional use of fire stations: Site Design Optimizing circulation for apparatus, snow removal and equipment storage, heated or sheltered entry points for equipment and staff and durable exterior surfaces that withstand continued plowing and de-icing. Building Fnvelopr, High performance insulation, air barriers, and low -maintenance exterior materials designed to resist moisture intrusion, ice buildup and freeze -thaw deterioration. Mechanical + Electrical Svstem Redundant heating systems, protected utilities, pressurized vestibules to separate "dirty and clean" zones, and back-up power generation help ensure reliability. Snow + Ice Manaaement Roof structures designed to accommodate heavy snow loads, strategic drainage considerations and safe pedestrian circulation paths. Planning for resilience extends beyond robust construction - it begins with a deep understanding of Fire Department operations. By analyzing workflows and daily routines, we can design stations that maximize operational efficiency while maintaining a safe and healthy environment for firefighters and staff. This includes, warm vehicle storage, strategically located bunker gear rooms and dedicated PPE decontamination areas to contain pathogens and protect clean living spaces. Every design decision is informed by operational priorities, ensuring staff can respond quickly and safely. We recognize a Fire Station is uniquely more than a workplace or a utility tool - it is "home away from home" and the team of people becomes a natural extension of their family. Our design team prioritizes spaces that support rest, recovery, and camaraderie, providing comfortable living quarters, communal areas and private spaces for well -deserved respite. By creating an environment that balances operational readiness with personal well-being, we aim to ensure all staff can perform at their best while fostering a sense of family and community within the station. 4 J Cost Control Integral to our team's design philosophy is delivering sustainable solutions that reduce energy consumption while utilizing durable, low -maintenance materials to minimize long-term upkeep. We view sustainability as more than energy efficiency — it is also about protecting human health by promoting clean air, limiting the use of harmful chemicals, and supporting social well-being through resilient and people -focused infrastructure. Our team has extensive experience delivering high- performance facilities across the U.S., including the American Indian Hall at Montana State University — the State of Montana's first LEED Platinum (v4.0) project. This nationally recognized achievement demonstrates our ability to integrate advanced sustainable strategies while meeting budget and performance goals. Recent project experience includes incorporating the following active strategies: • Geothermal Heating + Cooling • Photovoltaic Energy Generation • Electrification of Building Components • Solar Wall Technology • Drought -Tolerant Landscaping • Water -wise Plumbing Systems As architects working with public clients, we recognize the responsibility entrusted to us to use finite resources wisely and efficiently. We view cost control as an integral part of our design process and plan to use incremental cost analysis to validate our design choices. Our approach is iterative, with budgeting integrated at every step of design. Before any concepts are developed, we establish a cost model based on program requirements, spatial types, and proposed building systems. This allows our team to guide decisions y� based on scope, quality and value, ensuring every design decision reflects both the project's goals and L G the responsible use of public funds.
