Questions asked for Architecture team RFP
Do you all have a budget in mind for this project? We do not have a set budget, helping prepare a budget for the build is part of the RFP
To aid in understanding the current conditions, are there additional site photos available? See attached pictures and maps from the appraisal
Has there already been a land survey and environmental report completed or is that something that needs to be provided in our scope of services and proposal? Phase 1 Environmental, LBP testing for entire building, and Asbestos of the gym floor have been completed.
At one point it was mentioned the additional buildings could be modular construction, is this still anticipated? We are still open to the modular idea but really want to hear the community/neighborhood feedback before making that decision final.
If so, would the modular home company have a separate contract or be under the architect and our specifications? If we were to go modular they would work with your company to design the units.
