Facilities professionals for maintenance tax note projects (5-year pool)

Alvin College in Texas issued a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) on April 8, 2026, seeking pre-qualified professional services firms to support Maintenance Tax Note Projects over a five-year period. The College is procuring services across ten specialized categories: Indoor Air Quality Consulting, Professional Land Surveying, Traffic Engineering Services, Geotechnical Engineering, Materials Testing, Building Commissioning, Landscape Architecture, Roof Consulting, Water and Wastewater Design, and Drainage Systems Design and Analysis. These services will support the upgrade and possible remodel of four buildings on the College campus. Respondents must be firms, corporations, individuals, or partnerships engaged in the specified services and must possess proper professional licensing and registration in accordance with Texas law. Submissions must include a cover letter (maximum one page), a Statement of Qualifications Form, and a Reference Form with a minimum of four references from similar-sized customers or clients contracted with in the last five years, with preference given to State and government agency references. Evaluation will be conducted using weighted criteria: Previous Experience with Similar Projects (10 points), Previous Experience with Community Colleges (40 points), Experience of Key Project Personnel (40 points), and References (10 points). The question submission deadline was April 21, 2026, at 2:00 p.m., and the response deadline was April 30, 2026, at 10:00 a.m., with submissions required via email to the Director of Purchasing. The highest-scoring respondents may be required to make oral presentations.

The RFQ contains no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises or restricted categories of organizations based on available information. Alvin College has already retained Stantec as the lead architect and engineering subconsultants, establishing existing infrastructure that selected firms will integrate with throughout the contract term. The College reserves the right to include as many firms in each category as necessary and reserves the right to cancel the RFQ or waive any irregularities. Firms selected to the qualified pool are not guaranteed any minimum number of project assignments, with fee negotiations occurring only after a firm is selected from the pool for a specific project. No specific award values or budget ranges were provided in the RFQ documentation.
