This is Addendum 1 to an ARFQ (Architectural/Engineering Request for Qualifications) issued by the Health and Hospital Corporation, HST2600000006. The addendum modifies the original solicitation for architectural and engineering services related to a healthcare facility project. The document establishes procedures for submitting qualifications, including specific formatting requirements, submission deadlines, and evaluation criteria. Interested firms must submit their responses by the stated deadline, with selection based on demonstrated qualifications, relevant experience, and technical capability. The contract will be awarded to the firm deemed most qualified to deliver the requested architectural and engineering services, with the engagement term and scope defined in the base solicitation documents.

The addendum clarifies key contractual requirements including compensation structure, insurance and bonding requirements, and professional licensing standards that must be met by responding firms. All bidders are required to comply with applicable state and local regulations, prevailing wage requirements where applicable, and disadvantaged business enterprise (DBE) participation goals if applicable to the project. The modification ensures all prospective architects and engineers have updated information necessary to prepare compliant and competitive proposals, with selections to proceed through the qualifications-based selection process typical of professional services procurements in the public sector.
