RFP-785-2700000109-1 | RFP-909 Architect KSU Renovation Shauntee Hall, Phase II

Solicitation RFB 785 2700000109 is a request for architectural services for Phase II of the Shauntee Hall renovation at KSU, managed by the Commonwealth of Kentucky's Finance Facilities/Support Services. The project is divided into four primary service phases: Schematic Design (Phase A), Design Development (Phase B), Contract Documents (Phase C), and Construction Administration (Phase D), with an additional phase for warranty and LEED requirements. The renovation itself will be executed in two construction phases, requiring the first to be 100 percent complete before the second begins. A pre-construction phase is also required to ensure all materials are on-site or available before actual construction commences. The selected Architect/Engineer must be professionally licensed and maintain all necessary authorizations, adhering to professional standards of care and applicable Kentucky laws and codes. Key deliverables include schematic drawings, design development specifications, and a final written report following contractor payment. Site visits are required at least twice per month during construction to monitor quality and quantity of work. Compensation is structured as a lump sum, with Phase A fixed at 36,000.00 dollars and subsequent phase payments allocated as 40 percent for Phase B, 60 percent for Phase C (less Phase A and B), and 25 percent for Phase D, with the total lump sum to be negotiated after Phase A. Bids must be submitted exclusively online via the e-procurement system by September 29, 2026, at 13:30. Applicants must enter 0.00 dollars for the contract amount in the system and instead upload a single PDF containing the Official Bid Document and any required Bid Bond. The agreement becomes binding only upon the issuance of a Purchase Contract (Form DOA-39) by the Finance and Administration Cabinet.
