Hempstead County, Arkansas (the “County”) invites interested qualified firms to provide Construction Management Services on an agency (advisory) basis for capital improvements to the Southwest Arkansas Regional Medical Center, 2001 South Main Street, Hope, Arkansas. The improvements are funded by a voter-approved bond issue.
This solicitation continues the Request for Qualifications for this project published on July 19 and 26, 2026, revised to reflect the current agency delivery method and schedule.
