Exhibit B is a disciplines reference document prepared by the City of Homestead in Miami-Dade County, Florida, for their Request for Qualifications (RFQ#202509) for Professional Architectural and Engineering Services – Continuing Contracts. The document outlines the eligible service disciplines that qualified architectural and engineering firms may offer, including architecture, engineering, civil services, structural engineering, electrical, mechanical/HVAC, land surveying, landscape architecture, environmental services, geotechnical services, communications, site assessment, and construction engineering and inspection (CEI) services, among others. The City intends to award multiple five-year continuing services contracts to the most highly qualified respondents, with services provided on an as-needed basis for projects with estimated construction costs not exceeding $7.5 million or professional service fees under $500,000. The non-mandatory pre-submittal meeting is scheduled for May 8, 2025, with the submission deadline of May 29, 2025, at 2:00 pm EST. Proposals will be evaluated using a 100-point scoring system considering firm qualifications, project team experience, technical certifications, project approach, previous similar projects, and minority business enterprise participation.

Respondents must be licensed to practice in Florida and comply with federal regulations including 2 CFR Part 200 and 24 CFR Parts 85 and 570. Potential funding sources include federal and state grants such as the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), EPA, Florida Department of Transportation, FEMA, and HUD. The City of Homestead is an Equal Opportunity Employer that actively encourages participation from Minority Business Enterprises (MBE), Women's Business Enterprises (WBE), and Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBE). Local preference provisions under City Code Section 2-411(a) will not apply to this procurement. Respondents must complete mandatory forms including ADA Nondiscrimination Statements, Business Entity Affidavits, Debarment Certifications, Drug-Free Workplace Program Affidavits, and E-Verify compliance documentation. The City reserves the right to select multiple firms for different disciplines and will rotate project assignments based on expertise, experience, and current workload.
