Project no. 1393 on-call architectural design services

The City of Baltimore, through its Office of Boards and Commissions, is seeking to select five consultant teams to provide on-call architectural design services for Project No. 1393. The selected consultant teams will be responsible for planning, design, and construction document preparation services for the renovation and improvement of various City recreational and aquatic facilities, park buildings, and other miscellaneous projects. The consultant teams must demonstrate experience in designing modern recreation and aquatic facilities, familiarity with the International Green Construction Code, and the ability to provide construction management services and rapid response to the City's needs. The contract duration will be three years with an option to extend for an additional one-year term, with an estimated fee limit of $4,000,000 per contract. Proposals must be submitted by noon on July 26, 2024, and the City reserves the right to conduct a second interview with eligible firms.

The City has set MBE and WBE participation goals of 23.90% and 20.30%, respectively, for this project. The City encourages consulting firms, including those who have not previously worked with the City, to submit proposals. However, current City consultants must demonstrate their capacity to deliver the required services on time. The City has not identified any incumbent vendors or current contractors, and there is no information provided regarding existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The total available budget for this project is estimated at $4,000,000 per contract.
