Pre Bid Conference(N/A) UCLA requests a written response to this Request for Qualifications (RFQ) to select consultants to provide soils engineering and geotechnical testing and inspection services for various non-specific UCLA projects. These services are anticipated to include projects of different scales supporting new or existing buildings and site work at on-campus or potentially off-campus properties. A specific list of projects has not been determined. Each consultant selected will perform work under a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) with the University, with authorizations for specific assignments from Capital Programs, Facilities Management, Housing, and Asset Management necessary over the term of the agreement, which may be up to three years with an option to extend for an additional three-year term. The scope of services will vary according to the specific requirements of each assigned task, with appropriate fees negotiated under UCLA policy at the time of each authorization. The anticipated aggregate fees range from $100,000 to $3,000,000 for each of the three consultants over the term of the PSA, with an option to extend the fee limit by an additional $3,000,000 should the contract duration be extended. The selection of firms for services under this agreement does not guarantee the number of tasks assigned or the value of fees expended. Familiarity with a full range of project types undertaken by UCLA (including new construction, renovations, housing, classrooms, laboratories, dining facilities, and many other project types) is critical; previous experience in public university settings is preferred. Every effort will be made to ensure that all persons have equal access to contracts and other business opportunities with the University within limits imposed by law or University policy. Each Candidate Firm may be required to show evidence of its equal employment opportunity policy. The method of Contractor Selection has not been Determined at this time.
