1. GENERAL PROJECT INFORMATION

Project Description: Refer to Exhibit A for the "Project Description/Scope of Work".

Project Delivery Method The Delivery Method for the Project will be Construction Manager at Risk (CM at Risk), and, at a minimum, the Owner will also employ the services of a Design Professional in addition to the services of a CP.

During pre-construction, the CP will be responsible for pricing, value engineering, as well as maintainability and construct ability issues.

Project Budget The preliminary Stated Cost of Limitation (SCL) shall be $5,100,000. As part of the CP services, evaluate the Scope of Work and determine a developmental budget for the project, and prioritize the needs. The final budget/SCL will be determined by the prioritization of the Work, and the available funding. The Scope of Work may be revised by the Owner due to programmatic requirements, funding availability, or other circumstances.

Project Schedule The selection of the CP is anticipated to be finalized January 6, 2025. Preconstruction services are expected to begin immediately upon execution of the contract with the CP. Construction services are expected to begin upon contract execution. (All of the dates herein are estimates which are subject to change.) Work described will be started in Spring, 2025, and completed Fall, 2026. The existing facilities will be occupied during construction; therefore, phasing may be required.

2. CONSTRUCTION PROFESSIONAL SERVICES REQUIREMENTS

The CP will be expected to work collaboratively with the Design Professional to provide preconstruction services which may include, without limitation, technical review, cost verification, cost evaluation, value engineering, schedule development, and schedule evaluation, in addition to management of the construction. In addition, the CP will be responsible for methods of construction, safety, and the scheduling and coordination of the work of all construction and miscellaneous contracts required for completion of the project within its predetermined budget and schedule. The successful CP will be required to work collaboratively with the Owner's consultants.

3. CONTRACT INFORMATION

The contract format will be an Actual Cost plus a Fixed or percentage Fee not to exceed the Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) Agreement. During Pre-Construction, the CP will be responsible for pricing, value engineering, and maintainability and constructability issues. Construction will commence with the release of distinct work packages based on the design documents. The CP shall select all construction subcontracts by competitive selection using cost and other factors, with Owner approval of each subcontractor. The contract may have liquidated damages.

Form of Agreement The agreement between the Owner and the CP shall be the "AIA Document A133-current edition - Standard Form of Agreement Between Owner and Construction Manager as Constructor where the basis of payment is the Cost of Work Plus A Fee with a Guaranteed Maximum Price", along with the Owner's modifications.

The General Requirements of the CP contract and general conditions are not open for negotiation. The construction services will be on an actual cost basis with all savings under the GMP, including unused contingency, returned to the Owner.

4. SELECTION PROCESS

Selection of the CP will be a qualification/fee proposal evaluation process. Selection of the CP will be a two-step process with the second step being at the school systems option if deemed necessary. The first step will be a qualification-based process, which will result in two (2) to five (5) firms being selected for the second step. The second step will be an interview and negotiation based process beginning with the top ranked firm if insufficient information was provided in the first step and the school system deems necessary.
