Cost_Proposal_Form.xlsx

This Cost Proposal Form is an attachment to a Request for Proposals (RFP) issued by the City of California for Downtown Parking Garage Construction Management Services. The form establishes the required submittal format for cost proposals and outlines six distinct task categories for which bidders must provide pricing. The tasks include Preconstruction Services, Construction Management Services, Budget and Schedule Management, Testing and Special Inspections, Photographic Recording, and an Allowance for Additional Testing. Bidders are required to submit estimated hours, hourly rates for various labor categories (such as Consultant and Senior Consultant positions), and calculated costs for each task, with separate not-to-exceed totals for Tasks 1 through 5 and a consolidated total across all tasks.

The cost proposal format requires bidders to structure their pricing according to labor categories and task-based deliverables, with Task 6 (Allowance for Additional Testing) having a fixed amount of $10,000. The overall contract structure indicates a comprehensive construction management engagement that encompasses the full project lifecycle from design through construction closeout. Bidders must align their cost submissions with the scope of services outlined in the RFP, which calls for the Construction Manager to serve as the primary coordination interface between the City, design team, contractors, and City-retained consultants while managing cost estimating, scheduling, procurement support, and coordination with multiple City departments including Public Works, Transportation, Planning, Utilities, and Facilities.
