About this file

This is Addendum No. 1 to a Request for Qualification (RFQu) issued by the School Board of Seminole County, Florida, for architectural/engineering services on the South Seminole Middle School New Dining & Renovation Project (RFQu #25260017RFQu-JAM). The project encompasses design and construction administration services for a new dining facility and renovations to multiple buildings at South Seminole Middle School located in Casselberry, Florida. The scope includes interior renovations to buildings 3 and 4, remodeling of building 8 to improve circulation between locker areas and the gymnasium, and replacement of buildings 1 and 7 with a new dining facility and office spaces. The addendum was posted on Wednesday, December 17, 2025, with a proposal submission deadline of Monday, January 5, 2026, at 3:00 P.M. EST. Site visits for shortlisted firms will be scheduled after the selection process is completed, and no bidders' conference is mentioned in the addendum.

The addendum addresses five questions regarding submission requirements and project scope clarifications. Financial stability documentation may be submitted in multiple formats, including CPA-prepared tax returns, cashflow statements, profit and loss statements, or balance sheets; audited financial statements are not required at the initial submission stage but are anticipated to be required during the selection and contract negotiation process. Respondents may reuse reference forms from previous proposals if the information has not changed. The addendum clarifies definitional distinctions between a "Refresh" (paint, flooring, casework, ceiling, lighting, and doors) and a "Remodel" (modifications to walls, ceiling heights, openings, and change of use). Vendors must acknowledge receipt of this addendum and return the signed acknowledgment with their proposal submissions.
