Woodbridge, CT. Firms responding must have demonstrated relevant experience similar
to this project.
The form of Contract with the successful professional shall be AIA B141 or

also form the basis of the scope of services and costs to be included within the successful
professional’s proposal for this project
BACKGROUND

approximately 9,824. Each interested professional shall be invited, which is strongly
recommended, to attend a pre-bid meeting on Thursday, May 7, 2026 Woodbridge

note no questions will be entertained at that time.
The following Woodbridge Town Buildings will be part of the scope for this
project :

Exact scope to be defined at a later date.

these fees shall be submitted in a separate sealed envelope within the envelope with their
qualifications (only include your proposed fees in the original envelope to be addressed
to the Woodbridge Building Officer and Woodbridge Finance Director ; the other 4 do
not require a separate fee envelope). The Town plans to select a design professional
based upon their qualifications first, fees second; however, fees will play a determining
factor in the final selection of a successful professional firm. The fees would include
fixed costs up to and including Phase Three (Referendum stage, if required) at which
