Beaver County School District Architectural/Engineer Services Milford High School Cafeteria Addition/ Belknap Freezer Storage Area/ District Office Design Work/Plumbing

The Beaver County School District in Utah is seeking architectural and engineering services through a Request for Statement of Qualifications (RFSQ-26-174) for multiple infrastructure projects across their school facilities. The procurement encompasses three primary scopes: a cafeteria addition at Milford High School (approximately 5,000-6,000 sq. ft.), a freezer and food storage building at Belknap Elementary (approximately 1,000 sq. ft.), and plumbing modifications at the district office. Interested architectural firms must submit qualifications by November 6, 2025, at 2:00 p.m., with a non-mandatory Zoom informational meeting scheduled for October 28, 2025. The district's evaluation committee will assess submissions using a weighted criteria system: 30 points for firm qualifications/experience, 30 points for team strength, 20 points for past performance/references, and 20 points for design ability and project experience. The selected firm will be responsible for developing design options, estimating project costs, assisting with general contractor procurement, and providing construction oversight, with an initial design completion goal of March 15, 2025.

The procurement does not specify explicit set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Successful vendors must submit background checks for employees working on building sites, and the contract will be awarded to the highest-scoring firm based on the established evaluation criteria. The architectural services fee will be negotiated post-award in accordance with Utah Code, with no fees to be submitted in the initial response. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly detailed, the multi-project scope suggests a potentially significant investment in school infrastructure improvements. The district reserves the right to contact additional references and will prioritize firms demonstrating capability to complete drawings efficiently. No incumbent vendors or existing technology integration requirements are mentioned in the available documentation, indicating this may be a new procurement approach for the Beaver County School District's facility enhancement initiatives.
