OSU-Cascades Master Architect

The OSU‑Cascades Master Architect contract is a multi‑year, campus‑wide architectural consulting award for Oregon State University’s new Bend campus. The selected firm will develop and maintain a campus standards manual, perform design‑review services, update the long‑range development plan, produce renderings, run space‑programming workshops, and create bridging documents for future design‑build solicitations. The agreement is a time‑and‑materials contract with a not‑to‑exceed ceiling, runs for five years with a possible five‑year extension, and follows a two‑step competitive RFP process (written proposal then finalist presentations). Key elements include: • Development of OSU‑C specific design standards and ongoing compliance reviews. • Continuous updates to the campus long‑range development plan and city master plan. • Coordination of sub‑consultants and a mandatory workforce‑diversity plan. • Evaluation based on technical proposal (70 pts), presentation (50 pts), compensation (30 pts), and references (10 pts).
