Architectural Services

The Sarasota County Sheriff's Office in Florida is seeking architectural design services for a jail addition to its downtown correctional campus.

The scope of work covers the architectural design of the jail addition, which may include supporting work spaces such as storage, office space, restrooms, and a break room. The selected vendor must perform all work onsite at the correctional campus in Sarasota, Florida. The agency requires that all participating bidders be onshore organizations based in the United States. The agency is currently looking for proposals to determine the budget for this project. Bidders must submit any questions regarding this opportunity no later than July 15, 2026. Final responses may be submitted digitally via email or through the online portal.
