RFP - Architectural Services

The Hillsboro School District is soliciting proposals under solicitation number 2026 - Arch 01 to establish a pool of qualified architectural firms to support the 2026 Bond Program. This program, supported by an approximately 430 million dollar bond measure for the November 2026 election, encompasses over 500 scopes of work across more than 40 projects. The scope of work focuses on six primary areas: buildings and systems, safety and security, technology and cybersecurity, career and college pathways, extracurriculars, and other general projects such as kitchen remodels. The intended period of performance spans four to five years, from 2027 through 2030 or 2031. The selection process involves a two-phase evaluation consisting of a written proposal review followed by interviews for top-ranked firms. Awards will be granted to responsible proposers deemed most advantageous to the District. Selected consultants will be required to provide monthly invoices with net 30 payment terms, and the agreement is contingent upon the appropriation of funds in the District's annual June budget. Proposals must be submitted in a sealed envelope by November 23, 2026, and must adhere to a 20-page limit, excluding resumes and cover letters. Required documentation includes specific certifications and representations regarding business structure, tax compliance, and ethical history, as well as adherence to the District's standard contract and insurance requirements.
