Description
The City of Houston’s Houston Airport System is seeking qualified developers, investors, and cargo‑logistics operators to provide industry input for a prospective redesign and expansion of an 82.6‑acre cargo complex at George Bush Intercontinental Airport. The RFI will capture capabilities, innovative approaches, and business models for a Design‑Build‑Finance‑Operate‑Maintain (DBFOM) solution that could later lead to a formal solicitation.
• Scope covers conceptual design, financing strategies, construction, and long‑term operation of a modern cargo campus with climate‑controlled warehousing, flexible layouts, and integrated air‑side/land‑side access.
• Respondents must submit a sealed, triplicate package (original in blue ink plus hard‑copy and USB copies) detailing corporate capacity, services, development approach, risk mitigation, and any MWBE status.
• Key milestones: Pre‑submittal conference/site visit on July 24 2025, questions due August 7 2025, and final RFI response due October 2 2025. No budget is disclosed; the City will provide land at fair market value and may seek FAA or other grant funding.
