About this opportunity

The School Board of Seminole County is conducting a Request for Statement of Qualifications (RFQu) to select an Architectural/Engineering team for full design and construction administration services at Milwee Middle School, with proposals originally due June 17, 2026, though the procurement has advanced to finalist selection and negotiation phases as of late July 2026.

The project scope encompasses roof replacement for six buildings, new HVAC systems, campus-wide restroom renovations, exterior repairs, demolition of two existing structures, construction of a new two-story building for dining services and classrooms, and interior renovations across multiple buildings on an active school campus. The project budget is $34 million. The work requires phased construction sequencing coordinated with ongoing school operations and student safety.

Evaluation of written submittals employed a weighted scoring system: business structure (10%), experience and past performance (45%), methodology (35%), references (5%), and workload (5%). Financial stability is a pass/fail threshold requiring either a surety bond commitment letter for $34 million or audited financial statements from the past two fiscal years. Respondents must disclose pending litigation involving claims exceeding $100,000 and any liquidated damages or contract defaults within the past three years. All submissions required certificates of insurance, drug-free workplace certification, debarment certification, conflict-of-interest disclosures, and affidavits regarding contingent fees and coercion for labor.

The pre-proposal conference was held June 3, 2026, via Webex. Questions were due June 4, 2026. Shortlisted firms were notified by July 13, 2026, with oral presentations scheduled for July 22, 2026. A Notice of Intent ranking and scoring document was issued July 29, 2026. Contract negotiations are scheduled to begin August 26, 2026, with Board approval anticipated for October 6, 2026. Three addenda (issued June 1, June 4, and June 9, 2026) modified or clarified original requirements. The procurement is governed by Chapter 1013 Florida Statutes, the Florida Consultant's Competitive Negotiation Act (Section 287.055), State Requirements for Educational Facilities, and School Board Policy.
