Addendum #1 - Project 3042 Student Services Remodel.docx

This is Addendum #1 to a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) issued by Nash Community College in Rocky Mount, North Carolina, for architectural design services related to Project 3042, the Student Services Remodel. The addendum, dated September 30, 2026, addresses preliminary inquiries regarding the project scope. The college is soliciting letters of interest and Standard Form 254s from properly licensed architectural, engineering, or landscape architecture firms in North Carolina to provide design and construction oversight services for the remodel and reconfiguration of the Student Services area on the first floor of Building A. The project scope includes Admissions, Financial Aid, Registrar, Academic Advisors, and Student Services departments, with potential expansion into a portion of the library. Submissions are due October 9, 2026, at 10:00 a.m., with three copies of materials required, formatted on 8.5-by-11-inch pages and stapled in the upper left-hand corner. No site visits, guided tours, or bidders' meetings will be conducted prior to submission, and only hard copy submissions will be accepted.

The total project budget is $2,758,747.48, funded through State Construction Infrastructure Funds (SCIF). The addendum clarifies that no preliminary studies, advance planning, or other assessments have been completed for the Student Services area, and therefore no preliminary information is available to prospective firms at this stage. Selection will be based on ten evaluation criteria including specialized expertise, past performance on similar projects, staffing adequacy, current workload, proposed design approach, experience with project costs and schedules, construction administration capabilities, local familiarity, and track record of successful project completion. Questions regarding the solicitation should be directed to Procurement Lead Ronnie Raper at Nash Community College.
