Request for Statement of Qualifications
for Master Plans Examiner Services
Geauga County, Ohio
Notice is hereby given that the Geauga County Board of Commissioners is requesting Statements of Qualifications from parties or firms able to provide master plan review services. The plan review services generally encompass review of commercial and industrial building plans for projects within the County of Geauga, Ohio. Envelopes containing the submittals should be sealed and clearly marked: “Statement of Qualifications for Master Plans Examiner Services-Attn: Christine Blair, Commissioners’ Clerk.”
Statements of Qualification will be received by the Geauga County Board of Commissioners, 470 Center Street, Building 4, Chardon, Ohio 44024, or by mail at the same address until 4:00 p.m. local time on Friday, February 11, 2022.
The Geauga County Building Department (“Building Department”) is a certified building department through the Ohio Board of Building Standards (“OBBS”). The OBBS requires that commercial, industrial and institutional (schools, universities, health care facilities, etc.) plans are reviewed by a Master Plans Examiner. Because the County does not have a Master Plans Examiner on staff at the Building Department, the County intends to enter into a non-exclusive contract with one or more Master Plans Examiner(s) as an independent contractor, to provide plan review and written reports, if necessary, of such reviews for a period of two (2) years.
The qualifications set forth in R.C. 153.65(D)(1)-(5) and other qualifications shall be considered in evaluating all statements of qualification. Additionally, all parties or firms must possess the necessary licensing as well as State of Ohio certifications.
The formal Request for Qualifications containing the project description, qualifications requested, scope of services, selection procedures, etc. may be obtained at the office of the Geauga County Office of Development/Geauga County Building Department, 470 Center Street, Bldg 8A, Chardon, Ohio, 44024, Monday through Friday 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
