PHASE 1 - REQUEST FOR QUALIFICATIONS
DESIGN BUILD OF THE DGS HEADQUARTERS
1.0 PURPOSE
The intent and purpose of this Request for Qualifications (RFQu) is for the County
of Loudoun, Virginia (County) to solicit Statements of Qualifications (SOQs) from
entities (“Offerors”) interested in serving as the Design-Builder for the Department
of General Services (DGS) Headquarters (Project). The RFQu is issued to gather
information that will enable the County to: (a) identify Offerors best qualified to
successfully execute the design and construction of the Project; and (b) determine
which Offerors will be invited to submit proposals in response to the County’s
forthcoming Request for Proposal (RFP).
Offerors’ SOQs will be reviewed, rated, and scored by an Evaluation Team based
on the evaluation criteria set forth in this RFQu.
SOQs must meet all requirements of this RFQu. Any provision using the terms
“shall”, “will”, or “must” (or equivalent language) indicates a mandatory
requirement. Failure to meet a requirement may render an SOQ non-responsive.
The County’s Evaluation Team will assess how well each Offeror meets or
exceeds the evaluation criteria, and scoring will reflect their judgment.
1.1 BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The County’s Fiscal Year (FY) 2023 adopted Capital Improvements Program (CIP)
budget contains funding allocations for the design and construction of the DGS
Headquarters. Professional Services (design) funding will be appropriated in FY
2026. Construction funding will be appropriated in FY 2027. Furniture, Fixtures &
Equipment (FF&E) funding will be appropriated in FY 2027.
The Department of General Services Headquarters will be located on a parcel of
approximately 15 acres in Tuscarora Crossing, Loudoun County, Virginia,
identified as Landbay 2, Parcel 4A (County PIN 150-35-2403-000) in the County’s
WebLogis – Online Mapping System.
