CMaR Request for Qualifications - Addendum #1 3.12.24.pdf

This document is an addendum to a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) issued by Iowa Central Community College for Construction Manager at Risk (CMaR) services for the renovation of an existing campus building and re-roofing of another building. The project includes interior and exterior renovations of buildings located at the college's East Campus and main campus. The RFQ responses are limited to a maximum of 20 pages and must include a minimum of 3 and maximum of 5 project examples. Contractors are not required to use Building Information Modeling (BIM) but will be required to carry Professional Liability Insurance. The RFQ was posted on March 1, 2024, with final questions due by March 8th and responses due by March 15th. Iowa Central Community College will evaluate the RFQ responses and select a shortlist of qualified respondents by March 22nd. The selected respondents will then be invited to submit a Request for Proposal (RFP), with final questions due by March 27th and proposals due by April 5th. The college plans to award the CMaR contract by April 12th, with construction anticipated to commence in August 2024 and be substantially complete by November 2024.

The CMaR contract will be a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) contract. The selection process will be based on "best value" criteria, including the respondents' project experience, past performance, safety record, proposed personnel, and methodology. During the RFP stage, qualified respondents will be asked to submit their proposed fees for the project. Iowa Central Community College will select the proposal that offers the best value based on the published selection criteria and ranking evaluation.
