Jerry U. Guerrier, RA, LEED AP, Facilities Architect, will speak to UNC Chapel Hill’s process of public notification / website posting, the required electronic profile form, presubmittal briefings, what to highlight or not in the paperwork, team makeup, who is reviewing and what they typically are looking for, what constitutes an automatic “out”, how useful are the SF254s – should one for every team member firm be included, what happens after shortlisting, what are effective and non-effective interview strategies and more.  Walking the group through the University’s process, Jerry will offer insights into how an A/E firm can best position itself for selection.
