These four firms shall be asked to further compete for engagement on specific projects, typically capital improvement projects. The scope of work and the fees for each project will be presented to the Board for approval prior to the start of work. Every project will have its own budget and schedule but will be covered by this single contract. Due to their size and bulk the RFQ responses are not included with is resolution. They are available for viewing the School Facilities Management Department. The $1 million dollar price is merely an upper limit for expenditure under this agreement and will not be encumbered.
