About this file
This is a Standard Form for Contractor's Statement of Qualifications (HECO-16) issued by the University of Virginia for the Fontaine Data Center Two-Step Invitation for Bids (IFB #BA090426) located in Charlottesville, Virginia. The University seeks to retain a skilled construction contractor for full construction services on a new three-story, approximately 50,000 square-foot data center at Fontaine Research Park that will support academic research high-performance computing and UVA Health Information Technology operations. The project is adjacent to a new zero-combustion Fontaine Central Energy Plant and is part of the broader Fontaine Research Park development initiative aligned with the 2018 Fontaine Master Plan. The facility will have day-one capacity of 4MW for Research Computing and 500mW for Health Information Technology with future scalability to 17MW. This two-step prequalification process requires interested contractors to submit complete Statements of Qualifications by October 6, 2026, at 2:00 PM, after which pre-qualified firms will receive the full Invitation for Bids with 100% Construction Documents and compete for award through competitive sealed bidding.
The SOQ submission requires contractors to provide comprehensive documentation including general company information, bonding capacity letters from surety companies listed on the U.S. Department of Treasury's acceptable surety corporations list, disclosure of any judgments or convictions related to construction contracting within the past ten years, compliance certifications, detailed project experience from the past five to ten years with owner and architect references, proposed project staffing and organizational structure, personnel qualifications and resumes for key project team members, and small business participation data from the three most recent completed projects. Contractors must also disclose any debarment status, contract terminations for cause, liquidated damages payments, OSHA violations, environmental notices of violation, bond claims, schedule delays exceeding specified thresholds, cure notices, or workmanship deviations. Additionally, firms awarded UVA contracts valued at $5,000,000 or more must submit a disclosure to the UVA Office of University Counsel regarding contributions to UVA or its Foundations totaling $25,000 or more made in the preceding five years, with failure to disclose subject to a $500 civil penalty.
