RFQL-2026-1255263 Fire Protection Engineering Services Pool

Dallas College is soliciting Statements of Qualifications to establish a pool of experienced firms to provide professional Fire Protection Engineering Services on an as-needed, on-call basis for its seven community campuses and other facilities within Dallas County, Texas. The scope of work includes existing facility assessments, fire protection system design, code and life-safety reviews, plan reviews, inspections, testing, coordination, and construction administration. The resulting pool will be effective for one year, with the option for four additional one-year renewals, for a total potential duration of five years. The selection process involves a two-stage approach where an Evaluation and Selection Committee numerically scores responses based on firm profile, relevant experience, technical approach, key personnel, and understanding of services to create a short list of qualified providers. Once the pool is established, specific project awards will be made based on the provider's experience, qualifications, availability, and the specific requirements of the project. Selected firms must maintain professional liability insurance of at least 2,000,000 dollars and commercial general liability between 2,000,000 and 4,000,000 dollars. All designs must comply with local, state, and federal regulations, including the Americans with Disabilities Act and Texas Accessibility Standards. Interested suppliers must submit their qualifications electronically via the Workday Strategic Sourcing portal by October 19, 2026, at 2:00 PM CST. Late or emailed submissions will be disqualified. Payments for performed services are made monthly, with a ten percent retainage withheld until the submission of a Certificate of Final Completion. All communications regarding this solicitation must be directed exclusively to the Senior Procurement Analyst to avoid disqualification.
