The DeKalb County School District (DCSD) in the state of Georgia is issuing a Request for Qualifications (RFQu) to solicit proposals from qualified Architect/Engineer (A/E) firms to provide professional design services for Bus Maintenance, Parking, and Charging Facilities. The project scope includes the design of an Electric Bus Charging Facility at the East Dekalb Campus, a Bus Parking and Charging Facility at the former Hooper Alexander Elementary School site, and a Bus Maintenance and Parking Facility at the former Briarcliff High School site. The selected A/E firm will be required to provide services across various design phases, including preliminary consultation, schematic design, design development, and construction documents. Firms must submit qualifications by November 14, 2024, and the selection process may involve interviews and presentations. The DCSD has set a maximum stipulated fee of $227,500 for the East Dekalb Campus facility and $428,000 for the former Hooper Alexander Elementary School facility, with the fee for the third project to be negotiated.

The RFQu does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. It also does not provide information on any incumbent vendors or current contractors. The total budget range for the project is not disclosed, but the DCSD reserves the right to accept or reject any or all proposals and to determine the nature, amount, and frequency of the required services.
