Telfair County, Georgia is soliciting statements of qualifications and proposals from architectural firms for preliminary design services on a FY2027 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Senior Center Building Improvements project, with submissions due by 5:00 p.m. on December 7, 2026. Firms must be licensed in the State of Georgia and show a strong record of assisting local governments with CDBG implementation. The RFP identifies no set-asides.

Scope covers preliminary engineering report (PER) preparation for the application, followed, if the project is funded, by design and construction management services. The county requires a draft PER no later than January 29, 2027. Firms must submit fees or percentages for both phases, with the design and construction management fees contingent on funding. The county also requires experience with similar projects, key personnel qualifications, and current workload, along with Errors and Omissions insurance. Firms must complete the Statement of Qualifications Form, which Victoria Villegas provides on request at 912-244-2529 or VVILLEGAS@HOGARC.ORG before submission. The county requires compliance with Title VI, Section 109 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974, the Fair Housing Act, Section 504, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Architectural Barriers Act of 1968, and the Build America, Buy America Act.

Submissions go to Victoria Villegas at 5405 Oak Street, Eastman, Georgia 31023. Evaluation uses the SOQ Appendix C scoring form, which rates five criteria on a 0-to-2 scale for a 10-point maximum: necessary disciplines, firm and key personnel experience with similar projects, reference quality, comparable project experience, and price competitiveness. Evaluators also verify that firms meet the deadline and carry Errors and Omissions coverage. The county reserves the right to accept or reject any and all proposals and to waive informalities.
