Griffin Heights Housing Improvement Program - Round 3

The City of Tallahassee is seeking Statements of Qualifications (SOQs) from qualified firms to implement and manage Round III of the Griffin Heights Housing Rehabilitation Grant Program in Leon County, Florida. The procurement focuses on professional and administrative services for home rehabilitation and repair, targeting homeowners and property owners within the Griffin Heights neighborhood. Responding agencies must demonstrate extensive experience in working with residential property owners to successfully execute home improvement projects. The solicitation requires vendors to possess comprehensive expertise in managing housing rehabilitation programs, with a focus on administrative oversight and program implementation. The Request for Statements of Qualifications (RFSQ) 096-25-KM is currently open, with proposals due on September 26, 2025, providing potential respondents approximately two weeks to prepare and submit their qualifications. Evaluation will likely focus on the firm's previous experience, technical capabilities, understanding of program requirements, and proven track record in similar housing rehabilitation initiatives.

While specific set-aside designations are not explicitly detailed in the available documents, the procurement includes standard forms suggesting potential requirements for minority and women-owned business enterprises (MWBE). The attached documentation includes multiple compliance forms such as a Drug-Free Workplace Certification, Conflict of Interest form, Non-Collusion Affidavit, and Human Trafficking Affidavit, indicating rigorous vendor screening processes. Respondents must complete these forms to demonstrate organizational integrity and compliance with local government contracting regulations. The sample standard contract suggests the potential engagement will be a professional services agreement, likely with a fixed-term duration matching the housing rehabilitation program's timeline. Though specific budget ranges are not provided in the available documents, housing rehabilitation grants typically involve substantial funding allocations to support comprehensive home improvement efforts for qualifying residential properties.
