About this file
This Request for Proposals (RFP) is issued by the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) for Architectural and Engineering (A/E) services to design and manage construction of a new 6,000-square-foot Staunton Traffic Operations Center in Verona, Virginia. The project involves the demolition of an existing two-story house and shed and the development of complete site and building plans for a single-story facility designed to support VDOT district operational requirements, communication systems, and mission-critical traffic management functions. Tier III data center requirements will apply exclusively to the Operations Center, Situation Room, and Server Room, while remaining areas will be designed as standard commercial office space. The A/E firm selected will be responsible for schematic design, preliminary design, complete construction documents with professional seals, cost estimates, permit applications, erosion and sediment control plans, stormwater management plans, utility coordination, presentations to state agencies, and full construction phase administration and inspection services. Sealed proposals must be submitted electronically via eVA by 4:00 p.m. local time on August 20, 2026, with questions due by 4:00 p.m. EST on August 5, 2026.

Fees will be negotiated on a lump sum basis considering estimated manhours and labor rates for various skill levels and disciplines, with final rates documented in a Memorandum of Understanding between the Agency and selected firm. The Commonwealth of Virginia has established a 42 percent small business participation goal under Executive Order 35 (2019) on a race and gender-neutral basis, with preference given to businesses certified by the Virginia Department of Small Business and Supplier Diversity (DSBSD). Selection will be based on weighted evaluation criteria including the expertise and qualifications of the primary designer (15 percent), geographic location of the A/E office (5 percent), current and projected workload (10 percent), expertise in similar projects (20 percent), project manager qualifications (15 percent), recent experience within established design-not-to-exceed budgets (5 percent), compliance with state construction and capital outlay procedures (10 percent), use of SBSD-certified small businesses (10 percent), firm size relative to project size (5 percent), and financial responsibility evidenced by professional liability insurance (5 percent).
