This is a Taxpayer Protection Amendment Disclosure document related to the City of Pasadena's procurement of a Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) contractor for the Transit Operations Maintenance Facility project. The City is seeking a CMAR to provide preconstruction and design-assist services in Phase 1, with an optional Phase 2 for construction services at the facility located at 2180 East Foothill Boulevard. The project encompasses demolition, grading, MEP systems, fire life safety systems, electrical infrastructure, Battery Electric Bus charging equipment, stormwater management, solar panels, and off-site improvements. Phase 1 preconstruction services are estimated to commence in July 2026 with completion by January 2027, while Phase 2 construction is estimated to commence in March 2027 with substantial completion required by June 2028 and final completion by July 2028. The mandatory pre-proposal meeting is scheduled for April 28, 2026, with a question submission deadline of May 22, 2026, and a proposal submission deadline of June 8, 2026 at 2:00 PM. Interviews are tentatively scheduled for June 22-25, 2026. Liquidated delay damages are assessed at $19,000 per day if Phase 2 substantial completion is not achieved.

Proposers must hold an active California Contractors State License Board license (Class A or B) with a minimum of five years of business experience, completion of at least three prevailing wage public contracts in California, and three similar projects exceeding $70 million in value within the preceding ten years. The estimated direct construction cost is $60,000,000, exclusive of preconstruction services, general conditions, contingency, bonds, and insurance.

The project is partially funded by the Measure R Mobility Improvement Grant administered by the Metropolitan Transportation Authority. Proposers must maintain bonding capacity exceeding $60,000,000 and demonstrate financial strength through reviewed or audited financial statements showing profitability, liquidity, and positive net worth over the past three years.
