Any architect you hire will create a set of construction documents. The question is whether they are “complete.” I recommend that you pay the architect to create a fire protection plan (sprinkler system) as part of your construction documents. Many don’t include this service in their fee, relying instead on the contractor to produce it. You’re going to have to pay someone to create it, so the cost is a wash, but if the architect includes it in your construction documents, then you get city approval prior to beginning construction. If the contractor has to produce the fire protection plan after construction begins, he or she must submit it to your municipality separately for permit, which may cause a delay of several weeks.
