This is a Design-Build Model Contract and Request for Proposal from the County of Orange, California, specifically for John Wayne Airport, soliciting qualified firms to replace the aging Parking Access Revenue Control System (PARCS). The project scope includes replacing outdated equipment such as gate arms, kiosks, and license plate reader technology; implementing a cloud-based system with business intelligence and dashboard capabilities; updating signage; removing 2-hour parking restrictions; and updating electric vehicle parking assignments. The Design-Build Entity (D-BE) must be capable of providing appropriately licensed contracting, architectural, and engineering services. The contract establishes a 550 calendar day completion timeline from the Notice to Proceed, with 10 anticipated weather days built into the schedule.

The County will review GMP (Guaranteed Maximum Price) submittals within 14 calendar days, with a 7-day resubmission period if rejected. The project is subject to liquidated damages of $5,000 per day for delays beyond the contract time.
The contract price will be established through a Guaranteed Maximum Price structure divided into phases, with GMP 1 covering design services and pre-construction, and subsequent GMPs covering construction phases. The D-BE must establish a contingency fund for cost growth, with any unused contingency shared equally between the County and D-BE upon project completion. The County will maintain a separate contingency for County-directed changes and unforeseen site conditions. The D-BE must provide performance and payment bonds equal to 100% of the contract price within 14 days of award. Insurance requirements include $3,000,000 commercial general liability, $1,000,000 auto liability, statutory workers' compensation with $1,000,000 employer's liability, $1,000,000 professional liability, $1,000,000 network security and privacy liability, and $1,000,000 pollution liability. The D-BE is responsible for all site investigations, testing, and existing condition verification necessary to complete the design and construction work, and assumes all risk for existing conditions except for hazardous materials and subsurface conditions as specifically defined. The County retains ownership of all design documents and work product produced under the contract.
