About this opportunity
The City of Madison Parks Division is seeking qualified vendors to develop a comprehensive master plan for Olbrich Botanical Gardens through a Request for Qualifications (RFQU #14000-0-2025-BP). The project aims to address aging infrastructure, explore potential garden expansion, and meet the needs of growing local and tourism audiences. Key deliverables include reviewing existing site assessments, conducting community engagement, developing a phased implementation plan, and aligning with Olbrich Botanical Gardens' mission and the City's comprehensive plan. Evaluation criteria will assess team organization (20%), prior botanical garden experience (30%), engagement strategy (20%), environmental commitment (20%), and references (5%), with an additional 5% available for local vendors. Critical dates include a March 10, 2025 deadline for submitting questions, with City answers posted by March 12, 2025. Proposal responses are due by March 21, 2025 at 2:00 PM Central Time, with 2-4 shortlisted vendors invited for in-person presentations during the weeks of May 5 or May 12, 2025.
The project has a budget of $250,000, funded by the Olbrich Botanical Society (OBS) through the City of Madison process. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are mentioned, the solicitation does provide a slight scoring advantage (5%) for local vendors. The selected firm must demonstrate specialized experience in botanical garden master planning, community engagement, and environmental sustainability. The project will involve collaboration with OBS's nonprofit consultant, who will concurrently conduct a fundraising feasibility study. Vendors will need to showcase expertise in family-focused garden expansion, site assessment, and strategic planning that considers both immediate infrastructure needs and long-term community and environmental objectives. No information is provided about incumbent vendors or existing technological infrastructure that would require specific integration considerations.
