The Adams County Board of Supervisors is conducting a Design-Build procurement for an Airline Terminal Project at the Natchez-Adams County Airport (HEZ) in Mississippi. This is a two-step procurement process, with this Request for Proposals (RFP) representing Step 2, and eligibility limited to firms previously shortlisted through an initial Request for Qualifications (RFQ). Design-Build teams are required to submit sealed proposals containing technical components, including preliminary drawings, outline specifications, and project schedules, alongside separate price proposals. The submission deadline is 4:00 p.m. CDT on Tuesday, January 27, 2026, with proposals to be delivered to John Carl Beasley, Airport Director, at 434 Airport Road, Natchez, MS 39120. Federal regulations mandate a minimum of three firms must submit proposals, and the RFP was advertised in The Natchez Democrat on December 31, 2025, and January 4, 2026. The evaluation will utilize a numerical points system, first reviewing technical proposals and then price proposals, with the final selection combining technical and price considerations. Interested parties can obtain additional detailed scope information on the Adams County Board of Supervisors website at www.adamscountyms.net under Port Commissions and Advisory Boards.

The RFP does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions on participating organizations, nor does it disclose information about incumbent vendors or existing infrastructure requirements. No specific contract funding amounts or pricing terms were revealed in the advertisement document. Potential respondents can direct inquiries about the project scope or RFP-related matters to John Carl Beasley via phone at (601) 597-3033 or email at cbeasley@adamscountyms.gov. While the exact project budget is not specified, the Design-Build nature of the procurement suggests a comprehensive approach to developing the new airline terminal. The procurement appears to be structured to allow maximum flexibility for qualified design-build teams to propose innovative solutions for the airport's terminal project. Interested firms should carefully review the full RFP document and ensure they meet the previously established qualification requirements from the initial RFQ process.
