Florida Gulf Coast University Board of Trustees, announces a Request for Proposal for Professional Services in the discipline of architecture/engineering for Continuing Services regarding Small Projects up to $2 million as noted below:
Project No. BR-1072
Project: Continuing Professional Services Contract:
Small Construction Projects Up to $2 million
Fort Myers, Florida
Description of Project
Currently, FGCU has an architect under contract for such continuing service projects. However, the University has decided to seek an additional A/E firm to cope with the multiple demands of such small projects in a variety of campus locations.
Projects will be primarily for small renovation or remodeling of existing buildings where labs, offices, or classrooms need to be re-configured. Accordingly, there could be a need to re-design the structural, mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems as part of such work. The assignment of such small projects will be issued by the FGCU administration on an as-needed basis when/where remodeling is required.
Note: The design of such remodeling projects will be to provide professional design services for existing buildings and such re-design is expected to be complimentary to the existing buildings where the remodeling will take place, and/or as directed by the Director of Facilities Planning.
Contract Term
A two year contract will be negotiated with the selected A/E firm for such small construction projects of $2 million or less. An A/E fee structure and a list of engineering sub-consultants will also be negotiated at the time of contract negotiation. Do not include a fee structure or a list of engineering sub-consultants with this proposal, or face possible disqualification.
