Division of Library and Information Services Space Utilization Study

The State of Florida, specifically the Department of State's Division of Library and Information Services (DLIS), is seeking proposals for a Space Utilization Study of the R.A. Gray Building located in Tallahassee, Florida. The study aims to review and evaluate the current spaces used by the State Archives, State Library, and Library Development services, and develop a needs assessment and recommendations for improving the use of existing space or alternative space to better meet the Division's operational requirements. The successful consultant will be required to provide deliverables in four phases, including a needs assessment, preliminary report, final report, and final consultative services. The contract term is from July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023, with no renewal options. The evaluation criteria include the consultant's qualifications, experience, and approach to completing the study. Key deadlines include the submission of proposals by April 21, 2022 and the anticipated contract start date.

The RFP does not mention any small business or minority set-aside requirements, nor does it indicate if there is an incumbent consultant. Funding for this project will come from the State of Florida's budget, but the RFP does not provide any details on the award value or budget range. The contract terms and conditions are outlined in the General Contract Conditions (PUR 1000) document, which includes provisions related to purchase orders, product versions, price changes, inspections, deliveries, invoicing, payments, and other standard contractual clauses.
