Rationale:

Vendor: Eight (8) firms listed below
Term: 730 calendar days
Amount: Not to exceed $1 million each over a period of five years.
Scope: To award contracts to eight (8) separate firms, successful responders to RFP-483 for “On-Call Architectural Services” for the School Facilities Management Department issued by the COY Purchasing Department and opened on December 1, 2023.
RFP-483 was a competitive request for qualifications and hourly rates that had fourteen (14) responders. All responses were scored by the staff of School Facilities on a Qualifications Based Selection (QBS) basis and after interviews and all due diligence was completed the following 8 (eight) firms have been selected for engagement in a contract term of 24-months, with three (3) options to renew for additional 12-month periods by mutual concurrence. Each optional renewal period has an allowable percentage increase to the schedule of hourly rates submitted by each contractor with an average increase of a 3.5% in Contract Year 3; 2.31% in Contract Year 4; and 2.69% in Contract Year 5 to account for inflation.
1. Eisenbach & Ruhnke Engineering, P.C.
2. Fuller & D'Angelo, P.C. Architects & Planners
3. KG+D Architects, P.C.
4. Barile Gallagher & Associates
5. H2M Architects + Engineers
6. MEMASI Architecture & Engineering
7. LiRo Engineers, Inc.
8. LAN Associates
Due to the file size and sensitive nature, the back-up such as the RFP, selection rating forms and responses are available via flash drive in the Trustee’s Office and the School Facilities Department.
These eight (8) firms will be asked to further compete for assignment on specific projects, typically capital improvement projects. The scope of work and the fees for each project will be presented to the Board for approval prior to the start of work. Every project will have its own budget and schedule but will be covered by this single contract.
The $1 million-dollar price mentioned above is a not-to-exceed limit for expenditure under this agreement and will not be encumbered. These funds, up to this limit will be encumbered and assigned to specific projects as the needs arise.
This arrangement benefits the District in that contracts for the numerous projects anticipated will not be required.
