DNR-RFQ-462-492-2024- Landscape DP

The Georgia State Financing and Investment Commission (GSFIC), on behalf of the Georgia Department of Natural Resources (DNR), is seeking firms to provide Task Order Landscape Design Professional Services for Project No. DNR-462-492-2024. This Request for Qualifications (RFQ) is a multi-step procurement process where interested firms must first submit Statements of Qualifications. Qualified firms will then be invited to interview with a Selection Committee. The selected firm(s) may be offered a zero-dollar Task Order Design Services Contract for a term of one year with two one-year renewal options to provide landscape design services on an as-needed basis for various DNR projects across Georgia. The scope of services includes cabin renovations, visitor centers, office buildings, bridges and boardwalks, fish hatcheries, comfort stations, residences, maintenance shops, pre-engineered metal buildings, and yurts. The RFQ provides details on the evaluation criteria, submittal requirements, and the procurement schedule. Statements of Qualifications are due on April 15, 2024, and interviews with finalist firms will be conducted remotely on May 24, 2024.

The contract opportunity is limited to the state of Georgia, specifically the jurisdictions of Fulton County and the city of Atlanta. The RFQ outlines requirements for small, minority, and woman-owned business participation, and the selected firm(s) will contract directly with DNR, with compensation likely based on unit pricing, hourly rates, lump sum, or a combination thereof, to be negotiated on a project-specific basis. No maximum number of awarded firms is specified, and A/E firms specializing in one or more disciplines will be considered, with the option to include subconsultants. The RFQ does not provide any details on incumbent vendors or the anticipated contract value.
