Respondents shall demonstrate the experience, technical expertise, safety performance, and resources necessary to complete stabilization and demolition projects safely, efficiently, in compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local regulations, and in a professional manner. This RFQ is intended to identify firms qualified to perform stabilization and demolition services. Shortlisted firms may be invited to participate in a subsequent Request for Proposals (RFP) or competitive bidding process. Participation in this RFQ does not guarantee eligibility for, invitation to, or award of any subsequent contract. Unless otherwise authorized by applicable law, failure to participate in this RFQ shall not preclude an otherwise eligible contractor from submitting a bid in a subsequent competitive bidding process.

No construction contract will be awarded through this RFQ.
