Responses must be submitted by April 25, 2024, and the MSBA anticipates selecting designers by July 23, 2024. The MSBA expects an annual budget of approximately $150 million for the Program following the approval of the Commonwealth's FY 24 Budget.

The RFR does not provide details on pricing terms, set asides, incumbents, funding requirements and sources, or other salient financial information. The focus of the RFR is on the design and construction administration services to be provided by the selected respondents for the window/door and roofing replacement projects in the eligible districts.
