Notice is hereby given of the commencement of the selection process for architectural services for Pittsburg State University. The firm will assist the university in the development of an Architectural Building Program for a major expansion to the Tyler Research Center, home of PSU’s National Institute for Materials Advancement (NIMA). The program scope will include designing and equipping a prove out facility, part of an initiative to re-shore technology-based jobs and production to the region. Testing labs, office, and other support spaces would be part of the program as well as a basic masterplan for continued, efficient development of the site and an adjacent city parcel. Requirements for the Program include project background and justification, budgets, and schedules. The Program must also include space projections, summaries, and descriptions, in addition to a discussion of the impact the additional space will have on overall campus space, including building operating costs. Additional information that the university deems necessary may also be requested. The agency retains the right to engage the selected firm for design and construction services.
