Department/Agency Rowan-Cabarrus Community College Project Title North Campus Automotive Building Design Services Pre-Construction Services

Scope

This request for qualifications is for Construction Manager at Risk (CMR) Pre-construction services for the $25,000,000 Automotive Building at Rowan- Cabarrus Community College’s (RCCC) North Campus in Salisbury, NC. The project is envisioned to include the design and construction of one (1) new building.

It is envisioned that the building will house classrooms, labs, and support spaces needed to expand automotive programs. The building is envisioned to be a roughly 45,000 square foot, single-story building with high-bay spaces with large access doors and adequate power, cooling, ventilation, and compressed air to facilitate the frequent upgrade of the evolving automotive industry. The building is planned to be located on an undeveloped parcel on North Campus in Salisbury, NC. It is conceived to be a pre-engineered metal building with a front façade enhanced with metal and brick to integrate into the design aesthetic of North Campus. The project includes extensions of all utilities (power, data, water, sewer), to the site from the adjacent Technology Building. It will have a large concrete paved working yard, and an associated 30-vehicle fenced storage area.

Specific goals for the project are addressed in the Automotive Building Owners Project Requirements dated August 26, 2024. The scope of work for this selection will include conceptual design, schematic design, design development, and construction documents, but will not include construction administration or project close-out as the funding for the construction of the project has yet to be secured. The project will include site development, building construction, and fit-out yielding a fully functional facility. This project is anticipated to be delivered under a CM at Risk delivery model. The project will be designed and administered under State Construction Office requirements.

Owner’s Project Requirements

8/26/2024

1. Introduction

This Draft RCCC Owner’s Project Requirements document captures in writing the initial concept for the Automotive Building for Rowan-Cabarrus Community College’s North Campus in Salisbury, NC. This project is estimated to cost $25,000,000, however only funding for the design and preconstruction efforts has currently been allocated. These Owner’s Project Requirements shall inform prospective Architects, Construction Managers at Risk (CMR), Commissioning Agents (Cx), Sustainability Consultants, etc. of the goals and requirements the Owner has created for the project. They should use this document to evaluate their interest in the project, select their proposed teams, and guide the writing of their proposals in response to the Request for Proposals (RFP) to show their alignment with the Owner’s stated goals.

2. Vision

The Project is envisioned as:

A new building housing Classrooms, Labs, Offices, and Support Spaces necessary to support the growth of automotive programs allowing them to support the local automotive industry's workforce needs with state-of-the-art educational opportunities located on North Campus adjacent to the planned Technology Building. The plan calls for existing Automotive programs to relocate into spaces configured to support the latest in automotive technologies. Space Program includes expansion space to allow for expected increased enrollment resulting from dual enrollment with Rowan-Salisbury Schools planned CTE High School, new auto-body capabilities, and a new Heavy Diesel Technology program. The building is envisioned to be a 45,000-square-foot, single-story building with high bay spaces with large access doors, and adequate power, cooling, ventilation, and compressed air to facilitate the frequent upgrade of the evolving automotive industry. The building is planned to be on an undeveloped parcel on North Campus in Salisbury, NC. It is envisioned to be a pre-engineered metal building with a front facade enhanced with metal and brick to integrate into the design aesthetic of North Campus. It will be a high-performing building. The project assumes the extension of all utilities (power, data, water, sewer) to the site from the Technology Building. It will have a large concrete paved working yard, and an associated 30-vehicle fenced storage area. This estimate assumes Planning funding in FY 2025 and Construction Funding in FY 2026.

Specific goals for the project and individual buildings are addressed in this document.

3. Designer/CMR/CX/Sustainability Scopes of Work

The project will include site development, building construction, and fit-out yielding fully functional facilities. The Architect shall seek all required approvals, handle bidding, and administer the construction under a CM at Risk delivery model. The project will be designed and administered as a formal project and under State Construction Office requirements. The funding allocated to this project necessitates splitting the scopes of work of the Designer, Construction Manager at Risk, Commissioning Agent, and the Sustainability Consultant into phases.

3.1. Phase I (Design):
