4-Attachment 5 - MAC Design and Construction Standards.pdf

This is a Design and Construction Standards document prepared by the Metropolitan Airports Commission (MAC) for the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport. The document establishes the technical requirements and standards that must be applied to the design and construction of the currency exchange concession space. The standards cover architectural, engineering, and operational specifications necessary to ensure the facility meets MAC requirements, airport security protocols, and regulatory compliance. The document provides detailed guidelines for layout, materials, construction methodologies, accessibility requirements, and safety standards that any selected concessionaire must follow when developing or renovating the currency exchange location. These standards serve as binding requirements for the design phase and construction execution, ensuring consistency with airport master plans and operational needs.

The Design and Construction Standards document functions as a technical specification guide that all proposers responding to the currency exchange concession opportunity must acknowledge and comply with during implementation. Adherence to these standards is a contractual obligation for the awarded concessionaire and will be verified during design review and construction inspection phases. The standards address design criteria including space utilization, customer flow patterns, security features, technology infrastructure requirements, and aesthetic consistency with airport terminal standards. Any deviations from the outlined standards require prior written approval from MAC. The document establishes the framework within which the currency exchange concessionaire must operate and provides the technical baseline against which proposals will be evaluated for feasibility and constructability.
