Parking area improvement anderson readiness center s

The Oregon Military Department is seeking architectural and engineering design services for the Anderson Readiness Center Parking Area Improvements Project located in Marion County, Salem, Oregon. The procurement requires a consultant to provide complete design services for a new overflow surge parking area north of the existing parking lot, expanding the facility to maximize legally allowable parking spaces. The project mandates design and construction that meets National Guard Bureau (NGB) regulations and City of Salem permitting requirements. Key deliverables include a comprehensive design and bid packet to be submitted no later than April 1, 2023, with the contract anticipated to start in December 2022 for an initial two-year term. Evaluation criteria will focus on the consultant's experience, staffing and qualifications, project approach, design schedule, and knowledge of applicable federal, state, and local requirements. The Request for Proposals (RFP) does not include a pre-proposal conference or additional site visits, and proposals will be evaluated through a technical assessment process.

The contract opportunity appears to be open to all qualified architectural and engineering consultants without specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises. The estimated project construction budget is $940,000, with design services limited to 3%, 6%, and 3% of the estimated construction budget. Keller Associates, Inc. has been identified as the apparent successful proposer, with the Oregon Military Department intending to enter into negotiations for the contract award. As a federally funded project, the selected consultant must obtain a unique entity ID number and be cleared through the Excluded Parties List System. No specific incumbent vendors beyond Keller Associates are mentioned, and the project does not require integration with existing infrastructure beyond the current Anderson Readiness Center parking facilities. The successful consultant will be required to provide Certificates of Insurance prior to receiving a Notice to Proceed and must be prepared to conform to regulatory procedures if hazardous materials are encountered during the project.
