(RFQ) Notice to trade-White Stadium Project # 7278

The City of Boston's Public Facilities Department is seeking a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for the White Stadium Project located at 450 Walnut Avenue in Boston, Massachusetts. The procurement targets trade contractors across 12 different trade categories, requiring comprehensive qualification packages that include a Commitment Letter for payment and performance bonds, DCAMM Certification, and a DCAMM Subcontractor Update Statement. To be considered, trade contractors must achieve a minimum score of 70 points during the prequalification process. The project has a total contract duration of 670 calendar days, with estimated completion in March 2026. Key procurement dates include application package availability starting September 22, 2025, technical questions due by October 1, 2025, and Statements of Qualifications (SOQ) submissions due by October 7, 2025. Submissions must be provided as one hard copy and two USB flash drives with PDF formats, with electronic submissions permitted through the Trimble Unity Construct Bidding Module. The evaluation process is expected to be completed by November 7, 2025, with the Public Facilities Department reserving the right to waive minor informalities or reject all responses if deemed in the public interest.

While specific set-aside designations are not explicitly detailed in the document, the project will be subject to prevailing wage requirements. The estimated contract values for the 12 trade categories vary significantly, ranging from $130,200 for Glass & Glazing to $11,285,838 for Electrical work. The total project budget appears substantial, with multiple trade packages available for bidding. Upon evaluation, the contents of the SOQs will be open to public inspection, indicating transparency in the procurement process. Contractors will need to demonstrate robust qualifications, financial stability, and technical expertise across their specific trade disciplines to be considered for this municipal infrastructure project. The procurement approach suggests a comprehensive, competitive selection process designed to identify the most qualified trade contractors for the White Stadium Project.
