UNTHSC Gibson Library 3rd Floor Provost Suite

The University of North Texas System (UNTS) is issuing a Request for Competitive Sealed Proposals (RFCSP769-25-992ER) for general construction services to carve out an approximately 2,780 square foot Executive Office Suite for the Office of the Provost on the 3rd floor of the UNTHSC Gibson Library in Fort Worth, Texas. The selected general contractor will be required to coordinate construction efforts with an ongoing renovation project in the greater library, with work scheduled to take place between January 6, 2025 and April 16, 2025 for substantial completion by May 1, 2025. A pre-proposal meeting will be held virtually on September 17, 2024, and a mandatory site visit is scheduled for September 19, 2024. Proposals are due by October 10, 2024, with the HUB Subcontracting Plan due the following day. Evaluation criteria include the proposed agreement amount, schedule, contractor qualifications and experience, availability, references, safety record, and financial capacity.

The contract opportunity is subject to Historically Underutilized Business (HUB) subcontracting requirements, with the state's HUB usage goal for building construction projects set at 21.1%. Assistance is available from UNTS HUB specialists to aid in the preparation of the required HUB Subcontracting Plan. The procurement is limited to the state of Texas, specifically within Tarrant County and the town of Frankston. The document does not identify any incumbent contractors or provide specific budget information, but states the contract will be awarded to the proposal that provides the best value to UNTS.
