RFQ769-26-1013AW - IDIQ Construction Special Services

The contract establishes an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) agreement between the University of North Texas System and qualified firms to provide specialized construction-related services over a three-year base period with two optional renewal years, with total contract values anticipated between five and fifteen million dollars. The scope encompasses transition, occupancy, and relocation planning; construction project management support; and construction cost estimating services for UNTS facilities and its component institutions. Service orders will specify project-specific tasks, performance timelines, and locations, with work to be managed in accordance with the Uniform General Conditions (2022, amended August 2025), which govern contractual obligations, quality assurance, compliance, and audit rights. The contract emphasizes strict adherence to quality control, documentation, and inspection procedures, with inspections conducted at project sites and storage locations, and acceptance contingent upon approval by the Owner’s representatives. Selection of firms will be based solely on qualifications, including relevant experience, past performance, current capacity, management procedures, and responsiveness, with no price considerations at the RFQ stage. The process involves evaluating submittals against criteria such as project experience, team organization, and local responsiveness, culminating in ranking and negotiations with the top-ranked firm. The solicitation underscores the importance of HUB subcontracting participation, requiring firms to submit a HUB Subcontracting Plan and ongoing compliance reports, but does not mandate federal certifications like UEI or CAGE. The procurement process mandates electronic submission via the Jaggaer portal by November 12, 2025, with responses limited to 25 pages excluding covers and tabs, and emphasizes timely, complete, and compliant proposals. Overall, the contract’s key provisions include detailed requirements for personnel approval, business ethics, audit rights for subcontractors, HUB participation, and project-specific deliverables, all governed by the institution’s tailored contractual clauses rather than federal FAR clauses.
