Addendum #01 revised RFP dates, and Addendum #02 posted mandatory attendee lists and scope clarifications with additional attachments.

The fee proposal structure requires submission on Exhibit B for both the primary consultant firm and all subconsultants on an all-inclusive basis with no markups permitted on subconsultant fees. Basic services for special inspections and construction material testing are proposed at a base amount of $100, with all reimbursable expenses including mileage, phone, vehicle, printing, and mail to be included in the basic service fees. Allowable reimbursable expenses are specifically limited to printing and reproduction of design and construction documents, blue line or black line prints, predesign reports and specifications, electronic files of record drawings, U.S. Mail and express postage, and long-distance telephone calls pertaining to the project, all of which should be included within the basic service fee.
