27C-007D Design Services For 02-MMM Riviera Beach Area High School

PROPOSALS SHOULD BE BASED UPON THE FOLLOWING DESCRIPTION OF WORK: Project Overview The School Board is soliciting proposals from qualified Architectural/Engineering (A/E) firms to provide comprehensive professional planning, architectural, engineering, and related consulting services for the design and preparation of complete construction documents for a new urban high school facility to be located in the City of Riviera Beach, Florida. The proposed facility shall be designed to accommodate an initial enrollment of approximately 1,900 students and provide a modern, safe, efficient, resilient, flexible, technologically advanced, and educationally appropriate learning environment that supports both current and future educational needs. The design shall incorporate provisions for future expansion, allowing for the addition of classroom space to accommodate an additional 300 to 500 students. To support this planned growth, all core facilities and shared-use spaces including, but not limited to, the cafeteria, media center, administrative areas, physical education facilities, parking, utilities, and site infrastructure, shall be initially designed and sized to accommodate a total student population of up to 2,500 students. The intent of this project is to develop an urban high school design that maximizes land utilization through a compact multistory campus configuration while maintaining operational efficiency, student safety, flexibility, sustainability, and long-term maintainability. Prototype schools are welcome, but not mandatory. The selected Consultant shall provide all professional services necessary for master planning coordination, programming, schematic design, design development, construction documents, permitting support, bidding assistance, and construction administration services through project closeout. The ARCHITECT shall provide all professional services necessary to deliver Permitted Design Documents within the established Construction Budget and in accordance with the established Design Schedule. Based on occupancy of August 2029, and the Florida DOE Student Station Cost Factors published January 2026, the established Cost per Student Station for this project is $46,023.00. The Permitted Design shall incorporate all of the requirements set forth in all applicable specifications including Florida Building Code, Florida Accessibility Codes, District Master Specifications, District Design Criteria, Department of Education requirements, SREF 2014 and all other applicable specifications.
