School Facilities Study

The Washington County School Board has initiated a comprehensive Facilities Study procurement seeking professional firms capable of conducting an in-depth assessment of all school and support facilities within their division. The project requires sealed bids from qualified professional consulting firms with expertise in educational facility evaluation and strategic planning. The solicitation demands a thorough comprehensive study that will likely involve detailed physical infrastructure assessments, capacity analysis, condition evaluations, and potential recommendations for future improvements or renovations. While the procurement specifically references Washington County, the contract opportunity is listed as involving Stafford County and Alexandria City jurisdictions in Virginia. The bid is scheduled to be released on December 4, 2025, with a firm submission deadline of January 30, 2026, providing potential bidders approximately eight weeks to prepare and submit their comprehensive proposal packages.

The procurement does not explicitly specify set-aside designations or disadvantaged enterprise requirements based on the provided information. No incumbent vendors or existing contractors are identified in the current documentation. The solicitation appears to be open to professional firms with demonstrated capabilities in educational facility assessment and strategic planning, suggesting a competitive bidding process. While specific budget ranges are not delineated, educational facility studies of this comprehensive nature typically range from $50,000 to $250,000 depending on the total number of facilities, complexity of infrastructure, and depth of analysis required. Potential bidders should anticipate providing detailed qualifications demonstrating prior experience with similar large-scale educational facility evaluations, including documentation of previous successful projects, team expertise, and methodological approaches to facility assessment and strategic recommendations.
