Official description
Solicitation #CD 2025-024. Issued by Finance and Administrative Services. The City of Seattle is seeking qualifications for Professional Architectural/Engineering Consultant Services for Seattle Animal Shelter Design. Qualifications are due no later than 5:00 pm on Monday, February 9, 2026. All questions are to be submitted through the e-procurement portal at https://procurement.opengov.com/portal/seattle no later than 5:00 pm on Friday, January 9, 2026. The City of Seattle Department of Finance and Administrative Services (FAS), Capital Development Division (CD) is initiating planning for a new approximately 50,000 square foot Seattle Animal Shelter (SAS) on City-owned property. The new facility will replace the existing Interbay shelter, which no longer meets operational, capacity, or community needs. The project will create a modern, purpose-built facility that reflects best practices in animal welfare, expands veterinary and community services, and provides a safe, welcoming environment for animals, staff, volunteers, and the public. In addition, site planning will also account for potential co-location of the Seattle Police Department’s Canine (K9) Unit, which will require physically separated indoor and outdoor spaces. Through this RFQ, the City seeks an experienced architectural consultant team to lead programming and predesign, refine space requirements, assess site and operational considerations, and support public engagement to establish a strong foundation for future design.
