Washington State University Request for Qualifications For Design Build Services Eastlick-Abelson-Bustad Renovations Pullman, WA. Statements of Qualifications Submittals will be received by Washington State University, Facilities Services, from firms interested in providing Progressive Design-Build services for renovating 41,500 square feet of space to Bustad, Eastlick and Abelson halls on the Pullman campus of Washington State University. Washington State University is seeking a design-build partner who is committed to collaboratively developing a unique and tailored solution with the University stakeholders. The University is seeking a team which can develop a thoughtful, meaningful, functional, solution which serves all the program needs and strengthens the campus. The goal of the WSU progressive design-build process is to work with a committed team of skilled designers and builders to develop this project. The design-build team must be sufficiently familiar with the project parameters such that they are able to commit to achieving the programmatic goals working with the University team. WSU is not seeking a developed solution through the RFQ and RFP process, but rather is seeking a team with whom we can collaborate and develop the most successful building solution that meets the needs of the program. WSU is seeking teams who demonstrate a very clear understanding of the distinction between an immediate DesignBuild solution versus a commitment to a process of exploration.
