Contract source

Awarded vendors

  • Manders, Merighi, Portadin, Farrell Architects, LLC

Description

The Vineland Board of Education selected Manders, Merighi, Portadin, Farrell Architects, LLC as the Architect of Record to provide comprehensive architectural design, engineering coordination, and construction‑administration services for existing and future school facilities throughout the district. The award is based on an open competitive bid process, and the selected firm will bill the district on an hourly‑rate basis for a range of professional staff. • Scope covers district‑wide support (code compliance, grant assistance, program planning) and project‑specific services (design, bidding, construction administration). • The contract uses an hourly labor‑hour pricing model with rates from $200/hr for principals down to $60/hr for clerical staff plus a 10 % markup on consultant costs. • No total contract ceiling or term is disclosed; the award reflects a cost‑plus hourly arrangement typical for ongoing architectural services.

RFP # 03-26/27

Contract value

$3,000,000

The award documents do not disclose a total contract value. However, the hourly rates and the nature of ongoing district‑wide services allow a reasonable estimate. Assuming an average utilization of 1,200 billable hours per year for senior staff (principal architect, project architect, manager) and 1,800 hours for junior staff (designer, CAD technician, clerical) the annual labor cost would be: - Principal Architect: 200 $/hr × 200 hr = $40,000 - Project Architect: 150 $/hr × 300 hr = $45,000 - Project Manager: 125 $/hr × 300 hr = $37,500 - Project Designer: 100 $/hr × 400 hr = $40,000 - CAD Technician: 80 $/hr × 400 hr = $32,000 - Clerical: 60 $/hr × 400 hr = $24,000 Subtotal ≈ $218,500. Adding a modest 10 % consultant markup and reimbursable expenses pushes the annual estimate to roughly $250,000. Over a typical 3‑year engagement for district‑wide services, the contract value would be around $750,000. Because the district likely anticipates additional project‑specific work (large school expansions) that could double or triple this baseline, a conservative ball‑park for the overall award is **$1.5 million to $3 million**. The estimate therefore leans toward the mid‑range of $3 million as a plausible total contract ceiling.
