QUINCY (WGEM) – The Great River Economic Development Foundation is seeking qualified firms to submit a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for management, operations, and maintenance services for the Quincy Regional Sports Complex.
GREDF officials said this project aims to boost Quincy’s economic growth, enhance local amenities, and establish the city as a regional hub for recreation and sports tourism.
The RFQ seeks experienced firms capable of managing, operating, and maintaining a premier regional destination for youth and amateur sports.
The selected firm will oversee the facility’s day-to-day operations, ensure it is maintained to the highest standards, coordinate programming and events, and enhance community engagement through recreational and athletic offerings.
The Quincy Sports Commission is focusing on involving the right stakeholders in the design process. The next phase includes selecting a qualified firm with experience in sports facility management, specializing in sports tourism and multipurpose venues.
This firm will advise on design and manage operations post-construction. The planned Quincy Regional Sports Complex will have eight basketball courts (two college-sized and six high school-sized), convertible to sixteen volleyball courts, along with necessary parking and amenities.
The City may also explore optional enhancements.
GREDF officials said they will begin accepting sealed and electronic proposals on March 16.
All proposals must be received no later than 4 p.m. on April 15. Late submissions will not be accepted.
Proposals will be evaluated by a subcommittee of the Quincy Sports Commission using a scoring system.
Evaluation criteria will include sports facility experience, team qualifications, operations success, and project understanding.
Top-scoring firms may be invited to present to the full Quincy Sports Commission before a final selection is made.
Qualified firms with experience in sports facility management and public-sector projects are encouraged to submit proposals in accordance with the RFQ requirements.
