ARFQ AGR2300000001.pdf

This is an Architectural/Engineering Request for Qualifications (ARFQ) issued by the Arizona Department of Administration (ADOA) for architectural and engineering services related to state facilities and infrastructure projects. The RFQ seeks qualified firms to provide comprehensive design, planning, and professional services for multiple potential projects under a statewide agreement. The solicitation establishes a framework for selecting one or more architectural and engineering firms to support ADOA's capital planning and project delivery needs. Interested firms must submit qualifications by the specified deadline, with evaluation based on experience, technical competence, project team credentials, and past performance on similar work. The resulting agreement will be structured as an indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract, allowing ADOA to issue task orders as projects are identified and funded. The contract term is typically for an initial period with renewal options extending the relationship for additional years, providing continuity for ongoing state facility needs.

Pricing for this agreement will be established through a cost proposal component submitted by qualified firms, with rates subject to ADOA negotiation and approval prior to task order issuance. The contract includes opportunities for small business participation and may incorporate set-aside provisions to encourage diverse contractor involvement. As a state procurement, funding will derive from ADOA's capital budget allocations and project-specific appropriations. This RFQ represents the state's effort to establish pre-qualified resources for responsive project delivery without requiring competitive solicitations for each individual task, improving efficiency and ensuring qualified team availability for time-sensitive facility improvements and planning initiatives.
