Description
The Massachusetts School Building Authority (MSBA) is seeking qualifications from designers to provide prototypical school designs for the MSBA Model School Program. The program aims to adapt and re-use the design of successful, recently constructed schools to meet the requirements of eligible school districts. The selected designers will be required to execute a Contract for Designer Services for a Model School with a school district. The scope of work includes school design adaptations to accommodate code upgrades, limited enrollment variation, and site requirements. The MSBA will limit its reimbursement of designer basic services to school districts for the use of a Model School Designer to an amount that is equal to 4.75% of an upper limit of the total construction cost funding limit.
