Architectural And Engineering Design Services For Malibu Campus Plan – Phase 3B New High School Physical Education Center & Site Access Ramp

The contract pertains to comprehensive architectural and engineering design services for Phase 3B of the Malibu Campus Plan, focused on constructing a new 18,800-square-foot High School Physical Education Center to replace the existing upper gym, designated as Building J. The new facility will include locker and shower rooms, coach and staff offices, a training and treatment room, team locker rooms, a dance yoga fitness room, and a weight room, alongside a newly constructed entry lobby called the Hall of Champions with restrooms, concessions, and a ticket booth. The project also requires design of a replacement vehicle access ramp. All work must comply with Collaborative for High Performance Schools standards enhanced by 25%, and obtain approvals from the California Department of State Architect and the California Coastal Commission. Design efforts span pre-design through construction administration, following DSA regulations and Public Contract Code requirements, with deliverables including full construction documents, engineering calculations, CSI-formatted specifications, energy reports, and DSA-compliant submittals. The work must adhere to LEED Indoor Environmental Quality and Materials and Resources criteria, as well as District-approved materials and systems. All proposed team members are subject to fingerprinting and background checks, and key personnel—including the Principal in Charge, Project Director, Project Architect, and leads in all engineering disciplines—must be pre-approved by the District and cannot be substituted without written consent. The Architect must maintain continuity of assigned staff throughout the project and is required to provide litigation support if needed, with reimbursement available unless at fault. Sexual molestation and abuse liability insurance is mandatory for all personnel due to the K-12 environment. Submission of the Statement of Qualifications is electronic through the SecureBids portal by 3:00 p.m. on August 12, 2026, with strict page limits on the cover letter and project examples, while resumes and objections are appended separately. The contract does not specify a fixed value, payment office details, accounting codes, or federal acquisition regulation clauses, and is administered under District procedures with invoices processed within 45 days of approval. The project is located within the Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District, with services requiring no travel beyond 200 miles from the site, and construction is anticipated to begin in summer 2028.
