USF On Campus Stadium Project

The University of South Florida (USF) is seeking to contract with an experienced Design/Build entity for the construction of a 35,000-person on-campus stadium on the USF Tampa campus to serve the USF Football program and Women's Lacrosse program. The project will include the stadium, an athletic training and performance center, and related site work. USF is using an Invitation to Negotiate (ITN) procurement process and is looking for a single Design/Build team to provide all services, including program development, design, construction, and furnishings. Proposals will be evaluated based on qualifications, experience, ability to provide the required services, and the proposed scope and approach. The selected team will be required to provide professional liability insurance, bonding, and meet LEED Silver certification standards. The contract will be awarded to the most responsive and responsible proposer, with the award contingent on the availability of funds. USF has the option to incorporate additional scope and funding under the contract if more funding becomes available. The ITN submittal is due by 3:00 PM EST on July 22, 2022, and a mandatory pre-submittal meeting will be held on July 6, 2022.

USF is committed to providing opportunities for certified minority, women, and veteran-owned businesses as part of this project. Applicants must be properly licensed and registered to practice in Florida and cannot have been convicted of a public entity crime within the past 36 months. The contract value or budget range for this project is not specified in the available documents.
