Building Renovation

Carrizo Springs Consolidated Independent School District (CISD) is seeking qualified firms through a Request for Proposal (RFP 25-09) for comprehensive building renovation services at their Maintenance & Transportation Department facility located at 286 Farm Road 1556 in Carrizo Springs, Texas. The project involves extensive renovations including demolition work, restroom restoration and construction, lounge-to-office space conversion, door and glass replacement, complete HVAC system replacement, electrical and plumbing upgrades, structural modifications, and concrete work for a fuel pad with awning installation. Mandatory on-site visits are scheduled for September 3-4, 2025, at 8:00 AM, with potential bidders required to attend at least one session. Proposals must be submitted electronically through the Bonfire e-Bid system by the due date and will be evaluated based on four key criteria: organization and experience (15 points), letters of recommendation (5 points), quality of proposal and meeting district needs (20 points), and cost and fees (60 points), totaling 100 points. The construction is planned to commence on November 3, 2025, with completion targeted by December 5, 2025.

The procurement does not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises. Bidders must comply with numerous state and federal requirements, including providing documentation such as Proposal Certification, W-9, Conflict of Interest Questionnaire, Non-Collusion Affidavit, Felony Conviction Notification, and EDGAR Certifications. Contractors must meet specific insurance requirements, including workers' compensation, $1,000,000 in general liability coverage, motor vehicle liability, and third-party fidelity bonds. The district reserves the right to award the contract by item, part, section, or in its entirety based on best value determination and may conduct interviews or oral presentations with the highest-ranked respondents. While a specific budget range is not disclosed, the comprehensive nature of the renovation suggests a substantial investment. Contractors must ensure compliance with building codes, ADA requirements, and maintain comprehensive site safety measures throughout the project duration.
