Major procurements forthcoming for Capitol Complex, N. Austin Complex

The Texas Facilities Commission (TFC) has scheduled several upcoming procurements for the next phases of its Capitol Complex and North Austin Complex projects.

Phase II of the Capitol Complex will add two new office buildings totaling 525,000 square feet of office space, five levels of underground parking below Congress Avenue, and above-ground parking as well as the final block of the Texas Mall.

This phase is still in the planning stage while contracts and procurement documents are under development and review. Its completion is anticipated for fall 2025. Tenants occupying the Phase II sites must move to a completed Phase I building prior to construction start.

A request for qualifications (RFQ) is scheduled for this month for architectural and engineering services for the second phase of the commission’s Capitol Complex project to be followed by a construction manager at risk (CMR) procurement in June.

A $5.4 million contract to perform repairs to the Capitol Complex parking garage was scheduled to be on May 21, but a commission spokeswoman said that solicitation is likely to be delayed.

A $7.5 million contract for architectural and engineering services on the second phase of the North Austin Complex is scheduled to be released as an RFQ on May 23.

Located in the vicinity of 45th Street, 51st Street, and North Lamar Boulevard, the North Austin Complex primarily serves as headquarters for the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC).

The second phase of the North Austin Complex project consists of a new office building and accompanying above-ground parking. The new building will bring an additional 302,000 square feet of office space and 2,000 parking spaces to the complex.

TFC originally scheduled a procurement for June 11 to advertise for a CMR for the second phase of the project, but that solicitation is expected to be delayed as well.
