Open-end Design Services

Alamance Community College is seeking architectural, landscape architectural, and engineering design services through an open-end, one-year contract for small, informal projects. The procurement opportunity targets design services for projects up to $300,000, with strict limitations on annual and per-project fees (annual fees not to exceed $150,000 and individual project fees capped at $36,000). Proposing firms must be properly licensed to practice architecture, engineering, or landscape architecture in North Carolina and will be evaluated based on several key criteria, including specialized expertise, past performance in higher education, staffing capabilities, current workload, design approach, construction administration skills, proximity to Alamance County, and project completion history. Interested firms are required to submit three copies of a Letter of Interest and SF-254 form by September 11, 2025, at 3:00 PM, with specific formatting guidelines mandating a maximum of ten single-sided pages or five double-sided pages, excluding the SF-254 Form and Letter of Interest. Electronic submissions via email or fax will not be accepted, and proposals must be mailed or delivered directly to Jeremy Verroi, Coordinator of Administrative Services & Facilities.

The solicitation does not explicitly mention set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises or specific restrictions on respondent types beyond the requirement of North Carolina professional licensing. Funding for the project will be sourced from state, local, and/or private sources, with a total project budget of $300,000. No information is provided about incumbent vendors or existing technological infrastructure that might require integration. The contract represents an open-end design services agreement, allowing for flexible, as-needed architectural and engineering support for Alamance Community College's small project requirements. The maximum potential award value is structured with annual fees not exceeding $150,000 and individual project fees limited to $36,000, providing a clear financial framework for potential design service providers.
