Non-Competitive_Oversight_Committee_Justification_Form.docx

This is a Non-Competitive Oversight Committee Justification Form submitted by the Pinellas County Board of County Commissioners, Construction and Property Management Department, Construction Services Division, in support of a Construction Manager at Risk contract for the East Lake Community Library Expansion project located at 4125 East Lake Road, Palm Harbor, Florida. The project encompasses an approximately 8,000 square foot addition to the existing library facility, consisting of a ground floor addition of approximately 3,650 square feet on the east end of the building and a second floor addition of approximately 4,350 square feet constructed above the new ground floor and over a portion of the existing 2017 addition. The selected Construction Manager at Risk will be responsible for providing all labor, materials, equipment, coordination, scheduling, subcontractor management, and construction activities necessary to complete the project in accordance with County plans, specifications, and applicable building codes.

The justification form supports a non-competitive procurement method for this construction services contract, indicating that the County has determined competitive bidding is not the appropriate acquisition method for this specific engagement. The form would typically contain the County's rationale for selecting a non-competitive approach, such as unique project circumstances, specialized expertise requirements, or other factors deemed necessary by the oversight committee for this library expansion undertaking.
