Exhibit A _ Project Criteria_Rev2_Water Draft.pdf

This is a Project Criteria exhibit for the City of Atlanta's Department of Watershed Management (DWM) Peachtree Raw Water Pump Station (PRWPS) improvements project. The project encompasses rehabilitation and replacement of existing pumps, improvements to Pump Buildings 1 and 2, electrical distribution system improvements, evaluation of raw water main alternatives, and development of a dedicated raw water main serving Pumps 1 and 2. The City of Atlanta will conduct a multi-step sealed bid process comprised of an initial prequalification phase followed by an Invitation for Bid (IFB) to procure a qualified Progressive Design-Builder to provide design, preconstruction, and construction services. Interested firms must demonstrate experience and capacity in successfully delivering Progressive Design-Build or comparable water infrastructure projects of similar size, scope, and complexity, with documented professional design and engineering expertise, construction capabilities, staffing, project management, and resources. Firms must also demonstrate the ability to coordinate design and construction activities, advance project design, perform constructability and cost evaluations, and support development of a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) prior to construction. A Pre-Solicitation Conference will be noticed and held to provide additional details and address questions from interested bidders.

The document provided is a draft exhibit and does not contain specific information regarding pricing terms, set-asides, incumbent contractors, contract term details, renewal options, funding requirements, or financial amounts and sources. Additional documentation, including the formal Invitation for Bid and prequalification requirements, will be issued to provide comprehensive procurement details and evaluation criteria for interested Progressive Design-Build firms.
