Construction management-continuing services region 2

The Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS) has issued a Request for Statement of Qualifications (SOQ) seeking proposals from licensed general contractors to provide continuing construction management (CM) at risk services for Region Two (2) of the state. FDACS intends to award up to eight (8) continuing CM service term agreements, each with an initial term of three (3) years and three (3), one (1) year renewal options. The selected CM firms will be eligible to negotiate and provide preconstruction proposals and Guaranteed Maximum Prices (GMPs) on individual construction projects initiated by the Department throughout the term of the agreements. The SOQ outlines the requirements for respondents, including having an office located in the proposed region, complying with all local, state, and federal laws, and maintaining appropriate insurance. FDACS will evaluate respondents based on criteria such as financial capacity, relevant project experience, proposed staffing, project management systems, and interview performance. The proposals are due on October 23, 2024, with the short list published on November 4, 2024, and interviews and final selections to follow.

The contract opportunity is specifically for services within Leon County, Florida. The SOQ does not mention any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. Incumbent vendors or current contractors are also not listed. While the total award value or budget range is not explicitly stated, the SOQ indicates the construction values of individual assigned projects may not exceed the thresholds established in Florida Statutes.
