About this file

This Request for Qualifications (RFQ) and Proposals document is issued by the Roanoke Regional Airport Commission (RRAC) for Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) services for the Roanoke-Blacksburg Airport Terminal Improvements Project. The project encompasses pre-construction and construction services for a comprehensive terminal modernization including security checkpoint relocation, baggage system reconfiguration, airline ticket counter expansion, mechanical and electrical system upgrades, roof replacement, and accessibility improvements. The estimated construction cost is $55 million. The RFQ was advertised on April 29, 2026, with a pre-proposal conference and site visit scheduled for May 14, 2026. The RFQ submission deadline is May 29, 2026, at 3:00 P.M. local time, with responses submitted either electronically to procurement@flyroa.com or physically to the RRAC Administrative Offices. Questions must be submitted by May 15, 2026. Shortlisted respondents will proceed to the RFP phase with contract comments due June 15, 2026, interviews scheduled for June 17, 2026, and RFP submissions due June 22, 2026. The award notification is anticipated for July 27, 2026, with contract execution to follow. The CMAR contract is divided into two phases: a preconstruction services phase with design support and a construction phase with estimated project completion spanning from March 2027 through January 2029, dependent on phasing approval.

Pricing for preconstruction services shall be submitted on a not-to-exceed basis including all labor, insurance, and bond costs, with fully burdened labor rates detailed in Exhibit J. Construction phase pricing includes a CMAR fee submitted as a percentage, insurance fees as a percentage of the estimated $55 million GMP, and performance and payment bond costs as percentages. The project has a Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) participation goal of 2.4% for construction services with no prescribed goal for preconstruction services. Funding sources include federal grants, state grants, special appropriations, Passenger Facility Charges (PFCs), and RRAC Commission funds. Federal compliance requirements apply including Buy American provisions, Davis-Bacon prevailing wage requirements, and FAA Airport Improvement Program (AIP) regulations. The CMAR must obtain Virginia General Construction Class A licensure, provide surety bonding for single and aggregate project capacity, maintain required insurance coverages with minimum limits of $5,000,000, and obtain Security Identification Display Area (SIDA) badging for personnel working in secure airport areas. A two-step competitive negotiation process will be used to evaluate respondents, with the evaluation committee scoring submissions on minimum qualifications, organization and experience, project team qualifications, project approach, schedule and cost control methodology, and contract terms.

1. SOLICITATION

a. Public Notice

The Roanoke Regional Airport Commission (hereinafter referred to as “RRAC” or “Commission”), acting by and through its President and CEO, will accept Qualifications and Proposals (two-step process) from a qualified General Contractor or Team (hereinafter referred to as “Respondent” or

”Firm”) to provide Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) Services for the Roanoke-Blacksburg

Airport (hereinafter referred to as “Airport” or “ROA”) to execute the pre-construction and construction services of the Terminal Improvements Project (hereinafter referred to as “project”).

Qualified Respondents must be able to offer pre-construction, construction services, or alternatively partner with firms that offer such services. Qualified Respondents must be able to demonstrate sufficient knowledge of applicable and related federal, state, and local laws, regulations, standards, and demonstrate that they meet the additional qualifications described herein.

In accordance with Virginia Code 2.2-4343.1, the Commission does not discriminate against faith-based organizations.

See Section 13 - Representations, Conditions, Commission Requirements and Airport

Requirements for additional requirements.

NOTE – All federal provisions included in the RFQ/P document and the Exhibit C of the

Agreement Between RRAC and Construction Manager at Risk are subject to change.

b. Background Information

Roanoke-Blacksburg Airport is the major airport serving the communities of southwest Virginia, and the northwest counties of North Carolina. Allegiant, American, Delta, and United offer direct flights to 9 destinations and convenient access to hundreds of cities worldwide.

From its modest beginnings in 1929 to its current status as the region’s primary link to the global air transportation network, Roanoke-Blacksburg Airport continues to grow and adapt to meet its ever-changing aviation needs. The footprint of the airport encompasses approximately 935 acres of land with facilities situated in the city and county of Roanoke. Located in Southwest Virginia in the Blue Ridge range of the greater Appalachian Mountains, the Airport is classified in the FAA’s

National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems (NPIAS) 2019-2023 Report as a Primary, Non-hub

Commercial Service airport. Non-hub airports are defined as airports that enplane more than

10,000 passengers but less than 0.05% of total annual U.S. passengers. Inclusion in the

NPIAS indicates that the Airport is eligible to compete for federal funding from the FAA.

In 2025, ROA set a new passenger record, serving nearly 827,000 passengers. It had 66,000 flight operations in 2025. One of the strongest economic generators in the region, a recent

Economic Impact Study from the Virginia Department of Aviation estimates that ROA directly and indirectly generates over 3,200 jobs, over $193 million in wages, a GSP of $346 million, and over

$613 million in total economic output.

RRAC is an independent subdivision of the Commonwealth of Virginia. RRAC is responsible for all of ROA’s infrastructure including parking lots, terminals, runways and taxiways, and all revenue-generating and commercial development projects as well as for airport security, aircraft rescue and firefighting.

c. Procurement Process in General:

Legal Rationale and Requirements for Public CMAR Procurement:

As a political subdivision of the Commonwealth of Virginia, RRAC is required to procure Construction

Management Services in a manner consistent with the requirements of Virginia Law and, in particular, the Virginia Public Procurement Act, § 2.2-4300, et seq. of the Code of Virginia and Chapter

43.1 governing Construction Management and Design-Build Contracting (collectively, “VPPA”).

Per resolution no. 02-021825 adopted of RRAC’s Procurement and Purchasing Policy document and

Chapter 43.1, Va. Code, has defined the basis for using the CMAR delivery method on this Project as outlined in the Determination Regarding use of CMAR Procurement method, Exhibit G.

Process:

The RRACs CMAR procurement process will adhere to the Two-Step Competitive Negotiation Process as set forth in the RRACs Procurement and Purchasing Policy.

Step 1: Determination of Shortlist of Qualified Respondents

During this step, the Commission’s Evaluation Committee will evaluate and score the Statements of

Qualifications (SOQs) based on the evaluation criteria outlined herein, using the Scoring Matrix in

RFQ, Exhibit K, with a goal of achieving a shortlist of between 3 and 5 of the most Qualified

Respondents. Only the Shortlisted Respondents will proceed to Step 2 of the procurement process.

Step 2: Selection of a Construction Manager at Risk Entity

The Commission’s Evaluation Committee will evaluate the contract acknowledgments and price proposals submitted by the shortlisted Respondents, will conduct interviews of the shortlisted Respondents, complete the scoring (which may include an adjustment to the previous scoring based upon the presentations/interviews), and rank the Respondents based upon the final scores. After ranking the Respondents, the Evaluation Committee shall (i) conduct negotiations with two or more Respondents submitting the highest ranked proposals; or (ii) should the Commission determine, in writing and in its sole discretion, that only one Respondent is fully qualified or that one Respondent is clearly more highly qualified than the others under consideration, a contract may be negotiated and awarded to that

Respondent.
