This request extends the agreement for an additional year, (with ratification) effective June 1, 2026, through May 30, 2027.
Details: On May 6, 2024, the Board of Education approved the award of contract RFQu 24-752-017 for Professional Architectural & Engineering Services on an as-needed basis for various remodeling, renovations, life safety, maintenance and repair projects, for SPLOST and Non-SPLOST projects for the Facilities/Maintenance Department and the SPLOST program.

Financial impact: The total contract amount for these services, in an amount not to exceed $10,000,000, will be allocated from the various General Fund Budget and ESPLOST charge codes.

All single projects over the $100,000.00 threshold will be presented to the Board for formal approval in accordance with Board policy.
