Description
Montgomery County, Virginia is establishing a one‑year term contract (renewable up to four additional years) for “as‑needed” architect and engineering services to be used across the County, its Public Service Authority, and its Public Schools. Qualified firms may submit a single proposal covering the full suite of disciplines (architectural, civil, structural, mechanical, electrical, etc.) or a focused civil‑only proposal. The contract will be awarded via a weighted evaluation emphasizing personnel qualifications, sub‑consultant expertise, responsiveness to project orders, and experience delivering designs within “design‑not‑to‑exceed” budgets. Individual project orders will be negotiated on a lump‑sum, not‑to‑exceed basis, with travel and incidentals included.
• Scope: Feasibility studies, schematic design, complete construction documents, environmental permitting, utility coordination, public‑meeting facilitation, construction administration, cost estimating, and related services for small, discrete projects.
• Contract term: 1 year base, optional renewal for up to 4 additional one‑year periods; termination possible with 60‑day notice.
• Evaluation: 40 % personnel qualifications, 20 % sub‑consultant qualifications, 20 % response plan/timeliness, 20 % recent “design‑not‑to‑exceed” experience.
• Process: Pre‑proposal conference Nov 20 2025, questions due Nov 24 2025, proposals due Dec 17 2025, award expected Mar 2026.
