About this opportunity
The Trustees of The California State University is requesting qualifications for collaborative design-build services on the ASI Wellness Initiative at California State University, Fullerton under RFQ LS26001, with Statements of Qualifications due October 20, 2026 at 3:00 p.m., and prequalification applications due October 6, 2026 — a hard October 6 gate for eligibility. Respondents must hold a California B Contractor License and be prequalified by the CSU Prequalification Program at least one business day prior to SOQ submission. The project is subject to prevailing wage laws and requires 3% minimum Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE) subcontracting participation, with incentives of 1–3% based on DVBE participation levels. A 5% small business bid advantage (up to a maximum of $50,000) applies to firms certified as Small Business by the California Department of General Services.
The scope spans two-phase delivery: Phase 1 covers design and preconstruction services; Phase 2 covers design-build construction. Work includes approximately 48,000 square feet of renovation and an 18,900 square foot two-story addition to the Titan Student Union (13,400 square feet dedicated to Basic Needs programs); approximately 92,000 square feet of renovation and 25,000 square feet of new construction to the Student Recreation Center, including three-story and two-story additions for a Wellness Center and expanded fitness areas; and approximately 44,000 square feet of site improvements to the intramural field and associated sitework. The design-builder must commit to a guaranteed maximum price at the end of schematic design or during Design Development as agreed by the Trustees. Phase 1 work products and electronic files become property of the Trustees and may be used as bridging documents if the project does not proceed to Phase 2.
The estimated Direct Construction Cost Budget is $215.96 million. Phase 2 contract duration is approximately 915 calendar days with a Notice to Proceed anticipated in March 2028 and Notice of Completion in August 2030. Liquidated damages are specified at $5,000 per calendar day for late construction completion. The highest scoring four firms above the minimum qualifying score will advance to the second step (RFP). A non-mandatory RFQ Conference is scheduled for September 15, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. via Zoom. The successful Design-Builder will be announced December 15, 2026, with Phase 1 agreement execution on January 12, 2027 and Phase 2 agreement execution in February 2028. Joint ventures must file an affidavit at least five days prior to SOQ opening, with each party prequalified at least one business day before submission. The Trustees reserve the right to reject all responses and are not obligated to award Phase 2 to the selected Phase 1 Design-Builder.
