RFQ 26-02 Asbestos Inspection Consultant Qualification

Boulder Valley School District RE-2 in Colorado is issuing Request for Proposals (RFP) No. 26-02 to prequalify multiple vendors for comprehensive asbestos inspection and consulting services across their facilities. The procurement seeks qualified consultants to provide services including building surveys, hazard emergency response act management plan documentation, project design for asbestos removal, bid issuance, contract administration, and project oversight. Vendors must submit two separate files: a 25-page proposal document and a pricing document, with mandatory requirements including having an office located in Colorado, providing professional licensure information, and demonstrating experience with K-12 school projects. The RFP requires vendors to provide standard billing rates and an hourly pricing sheet for services such as survey review, sample collection, and air monitoring. Proposals are due electronically by August 6, 2025, at 10:00 AM (Mountain Time), with the district planning to evaluate responses by August 21, 2025. The evaluation process will comprehensively assess proposal completeness, cost, firm qualifications, client references, and ability to meet required services.

The RFP does not explicitly specify set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises or minority-owned businesses. The district reserves the right to award the contract to multiple vendors, suggesting a potentially open competitive process. While no incumbent vendors are mentioned, the contract includes a sample Professional Services Agreement that establishes a not-to-exceed total contract price, with reimbursable expenses covering office supplies, travel, communications, and incidental costs. The agreement requires contractors to maintain comprehensive insurance, including general liability and worker's compensation, and stipulates that contractors will operate as independent entities. Contractors must provide detailed pricing, with the district open to renegotiating costs annually. Although specific budget ranges are not disclosed, the RFP indicates the district is seeking ongoing abatement services, suggesting potential for a multi-year, multi-vendor contract arrangement with variable financial commitments based on specific project needs.
