Submission requirements:
Provide a maximum of ten (10) completed projects (see definitions) within the past five (5) years immediately preceding the date of issuance of this notice that best demonstrate specialized experience of the proposed team in performing the A-E services identified for this contract.

Firms with multiple offices shall indicate which office/branch performed the A-E services. For projects performed as a subcontractor or a joint venture involving different partners, specifically indicate the value of the work performed as a subcontractor or by those firms proposed for this contract, and identify the specific roles and responsibilities performed as a subcontractor or by those firms on the project rather than the work performed on the project as a whole.
