RFQ-integrated design-build services for tax office

The Town of Branford, Connecticut, located in New Haven County, is issuing a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for integrated design-build services to renovate and redesign the Tax Office facility at 1019 Main Street. The procurement seeks Statements of Qualifications from experienced design-build firms capable of providing comprehensive planning, design, preconstruction, and construction services focused on the renovation of interior staff workspaces and the complete redesign of the customer service counter area. Qualified respondents must demonstrate expertise in integrated design-build project delivery, with the ability to manage all phases from initial planning through final construction completion. The solicitation opened on January 23, 2026, at 8:30 AM EST and closes on February 9, 2026, at 2:00 PM EST, with sealed SOQs required to be submitted to the Finance Department, Attention: Purchasing Clerk, at 1019 Main Street, Branford, CT 06405, with no late submissions accepted. Specifications and additional project details are available from the Branford Town Hall Finance Department or on the Town's website at www.branford-ct.gov. The primary contact for questions is Robert M. Imperato, Tax Collector for the Town of Branford, reachable at 203-315-0646 or rimperato@branford-ct.gov. The RFQ specifically solicits qualifications rather than formal competitive bids at this stage of the procurement process.

All vendors are eligible to respond to this opportunity with no designated set-aside restrictions or disadvantaged enterprise requirements specified in the solicitation documents. No incumbent vendors, current contractors, or existing infrastructure integration requirements are identified in the procurement materials. The solicitation does not designate line items nor specify an estimated total contract value, delivery terms, or payment terms, indicating that these details will likely be established during subsequent phases of the procurement process following the qualification review stage. The evaluation criteria, specific scoring methodology, and final award value have not been disclosed in the initial RFQ documentation, suggesting that further procurement documents will outline these details and guide the selection of qualified firms for potential contract award.
