This is a Non-Compliance Form associated with an RFP issued by the City of Cleveland's Mayor's Office of Capital Projects, Division of Engineering and Construction, in Ohio, for professional design services on the E. 55th Street Safe Routes to School Quick Build project. The project encompasses approximately 2.8 miles of E. 55th Street from Outhwaite Avenue to North Marginal Road, excluding a 0.3-mile segment designated as State Route 283 between Superior Avenue and St. Clair Avenue. The scope of work involves preparing construction contract plans and specifications for a quick-build roadway cross-section reallocation project that includes removing existing pavement markings, installing separated bicycle facilities with delineator posts and new markings, ensuring ADA accessibility for transit waiting environments, and upgrading select pedestrian crossings with new crosswalks and curb ramps. No pavement rehabilitation is included in this scope. Written questions were accepted until July 15, 2026, at 4:00 p.m., with an addendum containing all questions and answers posted by July 22, 2026. Proposals were due on July 29, 2026, by noon. No pre-proposal meeting was held. The City will administer the design while ODOT District 12 will lead construction administration.

The Non-Compliance Form serves as a documentation tool for the RFP process and addresses instances where consultants may deviate from specified requirements. The form reinforces that where terms such as "Consultant to determine," "Yes," "x," or "By Consultant" appear in the RFP, the consultant is responsible for designing and preparing necessary drawings and details for those items. Design work may not be delegated to the construction contractor through plan notes. This requirement ensures comprehensive design responsibility and accountability from the selected consultant throughout the project delivery phase.
