This is a Public Meeting Notice issued by Volusia County Schools Planning & Business Services regarding an optional pre-submittal meeting for Request for Qualifications (RFQ) 2026-006 for Construction Management Continuing Services. The School Board of Volusia County, Florida is soliciting qualifications from construction management firms to provide comprehensive services on an as-needed basis for various construction projects throughout the county. Services will include pre-construction activities, estimating, value engineering, bid preparation, project scheduling, cost control, and progress reporting. The RFQ was broadcast on December 4, 2025, with an optional pre-submittal meeting scheduled for Wednesday, December 10, 2025, at 10:00 AM EST at the Facilities Services Building, 3750 Olson Drive, Daytona Beach, Florida 32124, available both in-person and via Microsoft Teams. The question deadline is December 17, 2025, at 3:00 PM, with proposals due January 12, 2026, at 3:00 PM EST. The initial contract term will be two years with Board options to renew for single-year increments based on satisfactory performance and mutual agreement. Individual projects under the agreement will be limited to construction costs not exceeding the threshold defined in Section 287.055(2)(g) of Florida Statutes.

Minimum qualifications require firms to hold current Certification as a Prequalified Contractor and be licensed as a Certified General Contractor in Florida. The procurement will utilize a Cost of Work Plus Fee with Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) delivery method, with compensation for preconstruction services negotiated for each project and construction phase compensation structured as Cost of Work plus a percentage-based fee. No specific funding amount is identified, as project funding will depend on individual project requirements and available school district funds. The RFQ does not specify set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises, and no incumbent vendors are explicitly mentioned. The School Board reserves the right to select multiple firms and to waive informalities or reject any or all submittals in its best interest. Contact information for questions is available through Nancy VanDerSchaaf, Planning Technician, at (386) 947-8786 Ext. 50835 or PlanningServices@groups.volusia.k12.fl.us.
