About this file
This is Addendum No. 1 to a Construction Management Services Request for Qualifications issued by Grand Rapids Public Schools (GRPS) for Union High School, Union Auditorium, Harrison Park, and Campus Elementary School projects in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The addendum revises the proposal submission deadline to Tuesday, October 27, 2026, at 11:00 AM and establishes an RFI question submission deadline of Friday, October 23, 2026, at 10:00 AM. Union High School and Union Auditorium projects will be awarded to a single Construction Manager, though GRPS requires separate cost workbooks for accounting purposes. The addendum introduces a two-phase bid package approach for projects achievable during summer 2027, with Bid Package 1 scheduled from June 7, 2027, through August 1, 2027, and Bid Package 2 commencing September 2027 through June/July 2028. A pre-submission sign-in sheet was attached to the addendum, and GRPS indicated openness to cost-effective scheduling solutions while maintaining end dates.
The addendum provides detailed mechanical and electrical scope clarifications for all three facilities, including water heater replacements, temperature control system upgrades (VAV box replacements), flush valve and miscellaneous valve replacements, and major equipment replacements such as AHU, chiller, and heat pump units at Harrison Park. Architectural scope clarifications include classroom reconfigurations at Union High School. The district emphasizes a two-step approval process requiring bid packages to be issued by early March for mid-April finance committee review and May board of education approval. Construction Manager and Architect/Engineer teams must provide appropriate separations to maintain occupied building operations and develop phasing plans accommodating scholar needs during renovations. Owner move-in is anticipated for summer 2028 when Westwood closes and relocates to Union High School.

ADDENDUM NO. 1
Date: October 21, 2026 Project: Construction Management Services RFQ for Union, Harrison & Campus Schools
Addendum Items:
1. Proposal due date has changed to Tuesday, October 27, 2026, at 11:00 AM.
2. RFI Questions to be submitted by Friday, October 23, 2026, at 10:00 AM for final addendum issuance.
3. Pre-submission sign-in sheet has been attached.
4. Union High School and Union Auditorium projects will be awarded together to one CM. For accounting purposes, GRPS requires separate cost / workbooks to be provided for each.
5. Proposed Schedule Revisions:
a. The district understands the concerns regarding the timelines for the Union High School and Harrison Park project schedules. District is open to other cost-effective solutions, as long as end dates are maintained.
b. However, GRPS would still like to consider the idea of multiple bid packages for items that may be achievable during the summer of 2027:
i. Union High School;
1. Athletic Fields
2. Other items determined that can be successfully completed in summer.
ii. Harrison Park;
1. Café flooring replacement
2. Other items determined that can be successfully completed in summer.
c. Please be aware the district requires a two-step approval process – for example, a bid package would need to be issued early March to be submitted for a mid-April finance deadline to receive a May board of education approval. AE/CM teams will be required to provide the appropriate separations needed to perform construction while the building remains occupied and to assist the district in developing a phasing plan that best accommodates scholar needs while completing the necessary renovations.
d. Suggested revised schedule timeline as follows for Union HS & Harrison Park:
One option for multiple bid packages (subject to change after reviews):
i. Bid package 1 SD - Jan 2027 DD - Feb 2027 CDs - March 2027 Bidding – March/April 2027 Finance Recommendation - April 16, 2027 Board Approval - May 10, 2027 Construction Start – June 7, 2027 thru August 1, 2027
ii. Bid Package 2 SD - Feb 2027 DD - April 2027 CDs - May 2027 Bidding - June 2027 Finance Recommendation - July 16, 2027 Board Approval - August 9, 2027 Construction Start - September 2027 thru June/July 2028 (if approved to work during school year and with scholar protections)
