The Michigan Department of Technology, Management and Budget (DTMB), State Facilities Administration Design and Construction Division, is requesting proposals for professional architectural and engineering design and construction administration services for an equipment storage building at Green Oaks Training Center in Whitmore Lake, Michigan, with proposals due September 3, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. Eastern and a mandatory pre-proposal meeting on August 12, 2026, at 9:00 a.m.

The scope encompasses Phases 300 through 700: schematic design, preliminary design, final design, construction administration office services, and construction administration field services. The facility will house heavy equipment including front-end loaders, zero-turn mowers, Bobcats, and salt-spreader trucks, requiring four to six overhead doors with 12-foot ceilings, 10-foot-high doors, heated concrete entrance slabs, and a separate non-heated salt storage bay with hardened walls. Deliverables include schematic plans through contract documents with design submittals at 50 and 90 percent milestones, cost estimates with each submittal, four full-size sealed hardcopy sets of contract documents, a proposed design schedule, bi-weekly progress summaries, and a graphic bar chart schedule in weeks. The professional services contract must participate in a minimum of four in-person face-to-face meetings, assume fourteen calendar days for owner review periods, and maintain a complete project file throughout design and construction administration. All contractor representatives must submit a Vendor/Contractor LEIN Request five business days prior to the August 12 meeting for facility access clearance.

Compensation is structured as billable hourly rates with estimated hours by phase and staff classification. Reimbursable expenses including printing, soil borings, site surveys, and laboratory testing are reimbursed at actual cost without markup if performed in-house. Travel over 100 miles one-way is reimbursed per Michigan DTMB Vehicle and Travel Services rates, with mileage calculated as actual minus 100 miles each way. Sub-consultant fees are permitted with a maximum 5 percent markup on reimbursable expenses. Proposals must include a detailed cost proposal by phase that becomes the maximum not-to-exceed contract amount.

Evaluation criteria weight the technical proposal at 80 percent and the cost proposal at 20 percent. Contract award is expected within thirty days of the September 3 proposal due date, with design documents ready for bidding by February 2027 and construction commencement targeted for April 2027. Questions are due August 20, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. Eastern. Proposers must submit a signed Certification of Michigan Based Business and Responsibility Certification prior to contract award. Proposals must be uploaded to SIGMA VSS with attachments not exceeding 25 megabytes.
