American Academy of Innovation APEX Center- Architectural Services

American Academy of Innovation is requesting qualifications for architectural services for the APEX Center project, with responses due electronically by 4:00 p.m. September 17, 2026. Questions must be submitted by September 14, 2026 at 4:00 p.m. MST to projects@aaiutah.org.

The solicitation seeks architectural design and related professional services as the primary scope, with landscaping services considered minor and largely consistent with existing campus conditions. Respondents may submit proposals addressing the complete scope or individual components, though submissions will be evaluated on completeness and partial responses may be disadvantaged.

Building sustainability features are encouraged but must be supported by cost-benefit analysis justification. No specific construction timeline, construction start date, or project budget has been established. Costs are expected to align with comparable projects of similar scope and size.

All submissions must be sent electronically to projects@aaiutah.org with a single-file upload limit of 1 gigabyte. The American Academy of Innovation, not Utah's Division of Purchasing, is the issuing office and will conduct all procurement decisions and communications. Contract award information will not be posted publicly; vendors must contact the American Academy of Innovation directly for award notifications. Vendors bear responsibility for reviewing the complete solicitation documentation to ensure compliance with all requirements.
