ADVERTISEMENT FOR STRUCTURAL ENGINEER SERVICES The University of California, Los Angeles requests a written response to this Request for Qualifications (RFQ) to select consultants to provide Structural Engineering (SE) services for various non-specific UCLA projects. Project scopes may range from SE assessments to concept design work, and peer reviews for projects in full design. The selected consultant will perform work under a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) with the University, with authorizations for specific SE engineering assignments from projects managed by UCLA Facilities Management. The tasks would be executed as necessary over the term of the agreement, which may be up to four years. The scope of services will vary according to the specific requirements of each assigned task, with appropriate fees negotiated in accordance with UCLA policy at the time of each authorization. Aggregate fees are anticipated in the range of $500,000 to $1,000,000 over the term of the PSA. However, the selection of any consultant for this project does not guarantee that fees of that value will be expended. The selected consultant will demonstrate a proven ability to analyze existing structural systems and prepare concept SE solutions and SE feasibility studies for renovation and new construction work. The consultant should have the ability to work flexibly with varying levels of information and scope definition. Familiarity with the California Building Code (CBC), UC Seismic Policy and the full range of project types undertaken by UCLA including; new construction, renovations, healthcare, housing, classrooms, laboratories, dining facilities, and other project types is required and previous experience in public university higher education settings is preferred. The University will select two Structural Engineering firms to consult for non-project specific assignments with the University. Each Structural Engineering consultant selected will perform work under a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) negotiated with the University, with authorizations for specific assignments from UCLA Facilities Management. The scope of services may vary according to the specific requirements of each assigned task, with appropriate fees negotiated under UCLA policy at the time of each authorization. This selection may not cover services for all structural engineering services performed by the University. There may be separate selections for large projects through project-specific advertisements and selection processes. There may also be instances of small projects that other firms will perform if they require special knowledge, skills, equipment, or availability of personnel. The complete RFQ packet will be available at: http://www.capitalprograms.ucla.edu/Contracts/RFQProjects on Friday, May 3, 2024, responses to the RFQ are due by or before 10:00 a.m. on Friday, May 24, 2024.

Every effort will ensure that all persons have equal access to contracts and other business opportunities with the University within limits imposed by law or University policy. Each Candidate Firm may be required to show evidence of its equal employment opportunity policy. Peter E.
