The scope includes managing a 67,000 square foot, four-story addition to the existing building, along with 20,000 square feet of renovation work to the existing structure, creating a total new building area of 147,890 square feet. The addition will serve as the new main entrance and will include public spaces such as meeting rooms, a joint finance hearing room, welcome center, press room, and cafeteria, along with security facilities for Capitol Police, maintenance shops, and office spaces for legislators and staff. The project aims to meet LEED Silver standards. The selection process involves submission of written proposals followed by oral presentations from shortlisted firms, with key staff members expected to participate in interviews. The selected firm will enter into negotiations with the State under an AIA contract form.
