This is a Scope of Work document issued by the Massachusetts School Building Authority (MSBA) for the Nahant Public Schools district regarding a feasibility study and schematic design project for school building improvements. The project encompasses a comprehensive evaluation of the Nahant High School and Elementary School facilities to determine building condition, code compliance, and educational adequacy, with the ultimate goal of developing schematic designs for necessary improvements. The MSBA is seeking qualified architectural and engineering firms to conduct site assessments, engage with school and community stakeholders, and produce detailed feasibility study reports and schematic design plans. The contract term is anticipated to span approximately 18 to 24 months from authorization, with the feasibility study phase lasting roughly 3 to 4 months followed by the schematic design phase. No specific response date, due date, site visit requirements, or bidders' meeting information is detailed within this document excerpt.

The pricing structure and compensation terms are not explicitly outlined in this Scope of Work document. The project is funded through the MSBA's grant program, which typically provides partial reimbursement for feasibility and design services for eligible Massachusetts school districts. The incumbent firm, if any, is not identified in this document. The work is being undertaken within the current educational environment where aging school facilities require comprehensive evaluation and modernization planning to meet contemporary educational standards, student safety requirements, and accessibility compliance. The schematic design phase will serve as the foundation for any future capital improvement project authorization and construction funding through the MSBA.
