Request for Proposals - Design-Build Services – Regency Furniture Stadium Improvements

The Maryland Stadium Authority (MSA) is issuing a Request for Proposals (RFP) for design-build services related to improvements at the Regency Furniture Stadium in Waldorf, Maryland. The stadium is the home of the Southern Maryland Blue Crabs, an Atlantic League Professional Baseball team. The selected firm will provide design, preconstruction, and construction services for the stadium improvements, which have a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) limit of $17.5 million. The RFP outlines the required qualifications, including at least 5 years of experience in managing design-build projects of similar size, scope, and complexity. Proposals will be evaluated based on technical merit, which is weighted more heavily than financial criteria, and the offeror that provides the best value to the project will be recommended for award. Key dates include a pre-proposal conference on April 11, 2024, a site visit on April 18, 2024, and proposal submissions due on May 21, 2024, with oral presentations scheduled for June 14 or June 17, 2024.

The RFP has Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) participation goals of 10% for design services and 15% for preconstruction services. Offerors must submit MBE utilization documentation with their proposals. The RFP does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond, nor does it list any incumbent vendors or current contractors. The RFP also does not provide details on the overall contract value or budget range.
