CUYAHOGA COMMUNITY COLLEGE
CAPITAL AND CONSTRUCTION DEPARTMENT
REQUEST FOR QUALIFICATIONS
ON-CALL PROJECT DEVELOPMENT SUPPORT SERVICES (PDSS)
COLLEGE-WIDE
PROJECT NUMBER C2025-1146
BACKGROUND
Cuyahoga Community College was opened in 1963 as Ohio’s first community college and has since been providing high quality, accessible and affordable educational services. It serves more than 60,000 credit and non-credit students each year at four campuses, two Corporate College locations, other off-campus sites and distance learning options.
The College has developed a new 10-year Integrated Facility Plan and will begin working on feasibility studies for specific projects over the course of the next two years.
Cuyahoga Community College has in the past retained services of Architects, Engineers and Construction Consulting for projects. Program and Equipment/FFE Management Services have also been provided on select projects. The provider of these PDSS services may work in conjunction with other Consultants under the direction of the College’s Office of Capital & Construction.
This PDSS contract duration will be two (2) years beginning on July 1, 2025 and terminating on June 30, 2027 and it is anticipated that fees associated with these services for each selected firm will be less than $200,000.
Potential projects for which these services will be provided are currently undefined, but they will likely range in scope from small renovations and internal moves to larger additions & renovations and could also include standalone site and/or building systems improvements. Because of the potential diversity of these project types and scopes, we encourage architectural firms, interior design firms, engineering firms, environmental service firms, AV services, signage consultation/design/estimating firms, building integration services, fire alarm and suppression design/integration and owners representative services, intrusion/access control and surveillance systems services, door and hardware services and construction management firms to submit qualifications in order to afford Tri-C the best possible choice in terms of range of on-call providers/services from whom to choose.
