Description
This RFQ solicits qualified architectural firms to provide comprehensive design, engineering coordination, and construction‑administration services for the renovation of Classroom Building T and the addition of a Workforce Training Center at St. Johns River State College’s Palatka Campus. The project encompasses roughly 28,600 sq ft of existing classroom space and a potential new addition of up to 25,000 sq ft, with a total construction budget of about $28 million. The selection process uses a two‑step RFQ (written qualification submission followed by interviews), with points awarded for experience, team qualifications, and proximity. After a Board of Trustees meeting on June 18 2025, three firms were shortlisted for negotiations. No price information is required in the RFQ, and the contract will be negotiated on a fixed‑fee basis once a firm is selected.
• Scope includes full architectural design, coordination with MEP, civil, structural, and telecommunications engineers, cost estimating, and construction‑administration.
• Required documentation: ARFQ‑1, ARFQ‑2, ARFQ‑3, financial statements, insurance certificates, and various certifications (drug‑free, public‑entity crime, etc.).
• Timeline: RFQ response deadline 2 PM April 24 2025; interview sessions May–June 2025; Board approval June 18 2025; negotiations to follow.
