Notice Of Intent To Sole Source By: Department of Parks, Recreation and Tourism

The South Carolina Department of Parks, Recreation and Tourism is issuing a sole‑source procurement to Liollio Architecture for architectural and engineering services to design, demolish, and construct a new welcome center at the Landrum border location. The contract leverages an existing “North Augusta” equestrian‑style design, aiming to reduce design time, operational costs, and ensure brand consistency across welcome centers. The agency cites the exclusive license held by the original architect as the justification for the sole‑source award. • Scope includes design‑bid‑build services, demolition of the existing structure, new construction, and site improvements. • Contract value is $750,000, fixed‑price for the full project delivery. • Sole‑source justification hinges on unique design licensing and liability considerations, with a deadline for interested parties to contact the procurement manager by May 15 2026.
