About this file

This is a project schedule exhibit for the University of Rhode Island's permanent PFAS water treatment facility design-build program, developed in coordination with Weston & Sampson and state purchasing agencies. The project encompasses the design, construction, and operationalization of a permanent water treatment facility to address per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances contamination in URI's water supply. The schedule establishes two parallel procurement tracks: an operations contract and a design-build contract, both commencing January 23, 2023, with completion targeted for January 31, 2029. Key procurement milestones include RFP posting on August 4-5, 2026; a pre-bid meeting scheduled for August 5-11, 2026; a Q&A period running through September 10, 2026; addenda issuance through September 21, 2026; and bid opening on September 22-24, 2026. The design-build contract execution includes tentative award on September 24, 2026, state purchase order issuance by November 30, 2026, and pre-construction activities commencing December 1, 2026. Construction is scheduled to begin November 22, 2027, and conclude December 15, 2028, with system startup and final regulatory approvals extending through January 31, 2029.

The project schedule identifies multiple stakeholder coordination requirements across state and university departments, including URI Purchasing, Risk Management, Office of General Counsel, Business Office, Rhode Island Department of Health, Rhode Island Department of Environmental Management, and the Rhode Island State Building Code Office. The design-build vendor is responsible for producing 30 percent design plans by February 19, 2027, responding to URI comments by March 2, 2027, and obtaining necessary regulatory approvals from RIDOH, RIDEM, and RISBCC by April 13, 2027. The schedule establishes guaranteed maximum price negotiation based on approved plans by April 22, 2027, with construction spanning 280 days. Final inspections and regulatory approvals by RIDOH and RISBCC are scheduled for completion by January 31, 2029. The operations contract track parallels the design-build schedule through purchase order issuance, with the new operations vendor engaged for co-management during facility startup and transitioning to full facility management by January 31, 2029.
