The Board of County Commissioners, Greene County, Ohio (the "Owner") seeks qualifications from design professionals to provide consulting services for materials testing and special inspections related to the design and construction of the New Jail Project (the "Project"). Qualifications received will be retained in the file maintained by the Owner for design professional qualifications, unless the firm specifically requests not to be included in this file; each firm is responsible to provide annual updates to the qualifications to remain current. This file will be used for future design needs when design fees are estimated to be less than $50,000. This Project includes the design and construction of a new County jail facility with 384 beds that incorporates effective, modern correctional design and provides flexibility of use with the capability for future expansion. The facility will also include administrative offices for the Sheriff's Office and Coroner's Office. The Owner's estimated total budget for the project (including all construction costs, design fees, and construction manager at risk fees) is $75,000,000. All questions concerning this RFQ shall be directed in writing via email to Lisa Hale, Assistant County Administrator at lisa.hale@greenecountyohio.gov by 2:00 p.m. two calendar days prior to the submittal deadline. Questions will be reviewed and the Owner will determine whether any addenda should be issued as a result of any pertinent or substantive inquiries. Addenda will be issued to all firms that have requested the RFQ for the Project. Firms shall not rely on any oral instructions or answers. Respondents should not seek to discuss any information directly relating to this procurement with any Owner personnel or anyone affiliated with the Project, except during scheduled site visits, or as otherwise provided for in the RFQ.
