There is no specific font, font size, color, or other formatting requirements, although a font size smaller than 10 is not recommended. Selection committee members may consider legibility and readability when scoring. Unreadable text will not be considered and may cause the QS to be deemed non-responsive. It is the submitter’s responsibility to provide a legible, readable document.

b. QS Content - It is recommended the QS include:

i. The RFQ number, airport name, name of firm, firm address, email address, telephone number and contact information for key personnel.

c. QS Content – For scoring purposes, the QS must include:

i. Information showing the firm’s project understanding and technical approach, including similar project-related experience of the project manager and each task leader responsible for a major work category. For each project referenced, identify either the project manager’s or the task leader’s specific role(s) and work contributed. The project manager is required to be a Professional Engineer registered or licensed in Texas, by the submission deadline. If applicable to project, an Architect, is required to be registered or licensed in Texas, by the submission deadline. License number(s) must be included in the response submission.

ii. In addition to individual project-related experience of the project manager and task leaders required under (ii), list no more than ten relevant projects performed by the responding firm within the last 10 years. This shall include project start date, airport name, location, phone number, and airport contact person’s name, title, and phone number. It shall also include the original project completion time estimate vs. the actual completion time for the cited design project, as well as a brief narrative description of the project and whether or not your firm served as the prime or the sub on each project cited.

iii. Project Design Schedule: Indicate the number of weeks (not months) necessary to design the project in accordance with “Project Design Schedule Information” below.

The Response must be submitted in eGrants following the Submission Procedures at the end of this notice.

Project Design Schedule Information

Based on the published project scope and your technical approach, indicate the number of weeks (not months) necessary for each phase and total design time to design the project. Some of the basic responsibilities within each design phase are included for reference. Do not include TxDOT review time. Assume, however, that your work will require some revision after TxDOT review, and that the time required to address these comments should be included within your schedule. If time is required for specialized studies, indicate the additional time.

NOTE: This proposed schedule will set the basis for the contract deadlines in the professional services agreement if your firm is selected.

Does the proposed design team have sufficient time to work on this project? Has the firm demonstrated an ability to meet design schedules in the past? Reasonableness of proposed schedule.

4. Construction Management Experience (20 points)

The architect/engineer will oversee the airport construction. Therefore, it is critical that the architect/engineer be involved in the day-to-day construction activities through a full-time resident project representative and periodic site visits. What evidence do the qualifications provide as to the architect/engineer’s commitment to proactive and consistent representation during construction?
