Progressive Design-Build Services, Abe Stark Sports Center RFQ


Description:

The New York City Economic Development Corporation (“NYCEDC”) is seeking a consultant team to provide Progressive Design-Build services for the integrated delivery of the design and renovation of the Abe Stark Sports Center in Coney Island. The facility spans approximately 46,000 gross square feet and includes an ice rink, bleachers, changing rooms, locker rooms, and other amenities. This project aims to restore and revitalize the facility and enhance it for public programming. Additionally, the project’s scope includes the development of a half acre public plaza directly north of the Abe Stark Sports Center.

NYCEDC plans to select a consultant through a two-step procurement. The first step of the procurement will be to create a short-list of the most highly qualified respondents to this Request for Qualifications (“RFQ”), based on the Statement of Qualifications (“SOQ”) submitted by each respondent. NYCEDC will evaluate each SOQ on the basis of factors stated in the RFQ, which include, but are not limited to: the experience of the respondent’s team, key personnel, project understanding and approach, and the approach to meeting M/WBE Participation Goals.

The second step of the procurement will be a targeted Request for Proposals (“RFP”) that will be provided to the short-listed respondents to the RFQ only. It is anticipated that the targeted RFP will be released in Q2 2025.

It is the policy of NYCEDC to comply with all federal, state and City laws and regulations which prohibit unlawful discrimination because of race, creed, color, national origin, sex, age, disability, marital status and other protected category and to take affirmative action in working with contracting parties to ensure certified Minority and Women-owned Business Enterprises (“MWBEs”) share in the economic opportunities generated by NYCEDC’s projects and initiatives.

NYCEDC established the Contract Financing Loan Fund programs for Minority, Women and Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (“M/W/DBE”) interested in working on public construction projects. Contract Financing Loan Fund facilitates financing for short-term mobilization needs such as insurance, labor, supplies and equipment.
