Parking Structure #2 Tarleton State University

Stephenville, Texas

The Texas A&M University System Office of Facilities Planning & Construction (FP&C) on behalf of the Board of Regents of The Texas A&M University System (Owner) and Tarleton State University, is accepting proposals for the selection process to enter into a contract with a Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) firm to provide pre-construction services such as constructability guidance, cost estimates, and construction schedules; provide a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP); and perform complete construction services consistent with the CMAR construction delivery process as utilized by The Texas A&M University System for the Parking Structure #2 (#04-3443) for Tarleton State University in Stephenville, Texas.

Tarleton State University proposes a new five-level, cast-in-place parking garage on the north side of campus at the corner of West Mulberry Street and North Garfield Avenue. The facility will replace an existing surface parking lot of approximately 440 spaces and will provide a minimum of 1,500 parking spaces, including ADA-compliant parking and accommodations for large pickup trucks.

The garage will consist of one level at grade and four elevated levels, including rooftop parking, with pedestrian access provided around the building perimeter. Vehicular access is anticipated from North Garfield Avenue and North Lilian Street, with potential access from West Mulberry or West Ash Streets if traffic flow efficiencies warrant. The project will include supporting infrastructure such as stair towers and elevators and is intended to meet a 50-year commercial building lifecycle. The design will emphasize sustainability, environmental quality, and resource conservation while achieving the architectural standards expected by the University.

The Planning Amount for the project is $57,000,000 which includes an Amount Available for Construction Contract (AACC) of $47,880,000. Fees, furnishings, other work, miscellaneous expenses, and contingencies make up the balance of the Planning Amount.
