I. GENERAL INFORMATION

A. INTRODUCTION/DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT

The University of Colorado Colorado Springs (UCCS) is soliciting proposals from qualified contractors and design professionals for a comprehensive renovation project aimed at enhancing the campus dining experience. This initiative encompasses multiple locations across campus and focuses on modernizing existing dining facilities, integrating new food franchises, updating interior finishes, and optimizing kitchen, dining, and lounge spaces to better serve students, faculty, and staff.

The scope of work includes, but is not limited to, structural and interior renovations, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) system upgrades, installation of specialized kitchen and service equipment, and compliance with university and franchise branding standards. Contractors and design teams are expected to work collaboratively with UCCS to deliver high-quality, efficient, and aesthetically cohesive dining spaces that support the university’s operational and sustainability goals.

This solicitation seeks experienced professionals with demonstrated expertise in food service facility design, construction, and renovation. Successful bidders must provide comprehensive solutions that align with UCCS’s procurement policies, accessibility requirements, and sustainability initiatives.

University of Colorado Colorado Springs intends to select a Design/Build Entity who will design, manage and construct the project as described within. The process to be used in the selection of the firm is comprised of two steps:

STEP I is the Submittal of Prequalification as described in Section II.

STEP II is the Oral Interview/Cost Proposal as described in detail in Section III.

A Jury Panel of individuals who will be involved in the project and/or understand the required services associated with Design/Build Contracting will evaluate responses to this RFP for both STEPS.

Upon completion of the evaluation of the Submittals of Prequalification, a limited number of teams will be invited to the oral interviews.

Sealed cost proposals will be required only from those teams who are interviewed and are to be submitted as indicated in this RFP. Both qualifications and cost will be considered in

IPD D/B GMP RFP Page 2 the final ranking of teams with qualifications given 70% of the value of the weighted criteria and costs in the sealed Cost Proposal given 30%.

Selection and award of this project will be based on a combination of qualifications and costs that represents the best overall value to the State.

Payments to the funds must constitute an ordinary business expense deduction for federal income tax purposes by contractors and subcontractors. Contractors are required to pay their employees at weekly intervals and shall comply with the enforcement provisions of C.R.S. §24-92-209.

1. Insert total score from each evaluator's ORAL INTERVIEW/ COST PROPOSALS/EVALUATION FORMS. (Note that the use of the Matrix for the PREQUALIFICATION SUBMITTAL EVALUATION does not consider cost proposals only qualifications). DO NOT combine the scores of the two evaluation forms.

2. Add all evaluators’ total scores and divide by the number of evaluators to determine the average score for each team’s qualifications.

3. The highest score for qualifications on the evaluation form is to receive 70 points and the other team scores are to be determined as a percentage of the 70 points. To score each average qualification score, use the example formula.

Assume the highest score is 700.

SCORING OF QUALIFICATIONS

FIRM B: 700 X 70 points = 70 points

FIRM C: 600 X 70 points = 60 points

FIRM A: 500 X 70 points = 50 points

4. Determine score for each team’s sealed cost proposal with the lowest cost being equivalent to a score of 30 points. To score each cost, use the example formula.

Assume the lowest cost was $100,000.

SCORING OF COSTS

FIRM A: $100,000 X 30 points = 30 points $100,000

FIRM B: $100,000 X 30 points = 24 points $125,000

FIRM C: $100,000 X 30 points = 20 points $150,000

5. Add the average qualification score to the cost score to determine cumulative qualifications and cost score.

6. Numerically rank all teams with the highest scoring team being the most qualified.
