All firms submitting SOQs must register by providing the firm’s name and contact information to Madison Stanley at mstanley@greatparks.org by 4:00 p.m. (EST), Wednesday, November 27, 2024.
Any questions prior to the deadline should be submitted in writing by email to Madison Stanley at mstanley@greatparks.org by 4:00 p.m. (EST), Friday, December 6, 2024. No questions will be answered after that date and time unless Great Parks determines that answering the question is necessary to correct an error or inconsistency in the RFQ. All questions and answers will be provided by email to all registered firms simultaneously.

SOQs RECEIVED AFTER THE DEADLINE WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED.
As set forth in ORC 9.28, SOQs will be available for public inspection after Great Parks makes an award. Great Parks is a governmental agency exempt from all local, state, and federal taxes.

However, Great Parks reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to select more or less than 3 firms to continue in the process, to waive any formalities or irregularities in the submission of SOQs, or to reject all SOQs and readvertise for construction management services.
