Testing and Inspection Services - Baltimore Polytechnic Institute and Western High School

The Maryland Stadium Authority is requesting proposals for testing and inspection services at the Baltimore Polytechnic Institute and Western High School project located at 1400 W Cold Spring Lane, Baltimore, Maryland 21209, with proposals due August 6, 2026 at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time via the Euna portal. A 10% Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) participation goal applies with no subgoals; MBE firms must be MDOT-certified and identified via D-1A form submission.

Scope encompasses comprehensive testing and inspection across earthwork and soils, asphalt, erosion and sediment control, concrete, masonry, steel, roofing, fireproofing, waterproofing, windows and skylights, and painting. Key personnel must include inspectors certified in soils, asphalt, concrete, rebar, and masonry with consistent onsite presence as required. Offerors must demonstrate a minimum of five years of experience as a prime contractor providing testing and inspection services across all specified disciplines and hold Maryland licensure; compliance with the 2021 International Building Code and Baltimore City Code is required. The selected contractor will coordinate directly with Construction Manager Dustin Construction, Inc. and Architect of Record GWWO Architects, Inc.

The contract is structured as a not-to-exceed vehicle including an owner's contingency, with work anticipated to commence immediately upon award and continuing through project completion. The agreement is administered through MSA's web-based MBE and prevailing wage compliance system.

Technical proposals are weighted more heavily than financial proposals in evaluation. The project is authorized under the Built to Learn Act of 2020 and implemented through collaboration between MSA and Baltimore City Schools. A pre-proposal conference was held July 23, 2026 at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time via Zoom; Addendum No. 1, dated July 28, 2026, incorporates the pre-proposal presentation, attendee list, and answers to submitted questions. All proposals must include completed MBE forms, conflict of interest affidavits, proof of insurance, references, and organizational charts identifying key personnel.
