About this opportunity
Valencia College is seeking architectural firms to design a comprehensive nursing simulation laboratory through a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for a renovation project at its West Campus in Orlando, Florida. The procurement involves designing a high-fidelity 16,000 square foot simulation learning environment within the Health Sciences Building, which will include a ten-bed simulation classroom, anatomage classroom, lecture classroom, ICU simulation rooms, control rooms, immersive learning rooms, and administrative spaces. Key project dates include a non-mandatory pre-proposal site visit on March 3, 2025, an inquiry deadline of March 10, 2025, and proposal submissions due by March 31, 2025. The selection process will follow a multi-phase evaluation approach, with firms being scored on business structure, design team capabilities, and experience with nursing simulation labs and higher education projects. Evaluation will involve an initial proposal review, potential interviews with top-ranked firms, and final contract negotiations, with the District Board of Trustees planning to make a final award on May 22, 2025.
The solicitation appears to encourage participation from diverse vendors, with specific provisions for minority and women-owned businesses. Five architectural firms have been shortlisted for Phase II interviews: HuntonBrady Architects, Baker Barrios Architects, Little, The S/L/A/M Collaborative, and Harvard Jolly, Inc. While no specific contract value is explicitly stated, the comprehensive nature of the project suggests a significant investment in educational infrastructure. Insurance requirements are stringent, mandating General Liability coverage of at least $1,000,000 per occurrence, Workers' Compensation meeting statutory requirements, Employers Liability Insurance of $1,000,000, and Professional Liability Insurance of $2,000,000. Firms must submit a Certificate of Insurance with Valencia College District Board of Trustees and Valencia Foundation designated as additional insureds. The procurement emphasizes ethical conduct, legal compliance, and a commitment to selecting a financially stable architectural firm capable of delivering a sophisticated healthcare education facility design.
