This document is Addendum No. 1 for Request for Qualifications (RFQ) 24-11 issued by the Tampa Sports Authority for Architectural Design, Review and Administration Services for Amateur Sports Venues. The addendum, dated May 6, 2025, addresses a key modification to the original RFQ, specifically relating to the indemnification provision in Section 26. The RFQ proposals are due on Thursday, May 29, 2025, no later than 10:30am, with the primary focus on securing architectural services for design, review, and administration of amateur sports facilities.

The addendum includes a revised indemnification clause that requires the selected proposer to indemnify and hold harmless the Tampa Sports Authority, its officers, and employees from liabilities, damages, losses, and costs arising from the proposer's negligence, recklessness, or intentionally wrongful conduct during the contract performance. The document provides a statutorily compliant version of the indemnification provision, addressing a potential non-compliance issue with F.S. 725.08 for design professionals in a professional services contract with a public agency. Proposers must complete and return this addendum form with their proposal to qualify, signifying their understanding and acceptance of the modified terms.
