UNCW Cameron CMR REV_29058.pdf

This document is a Construction Manager-at-Risk (CMR) solicitation from the University of North Carolina Wilmington (UNCW) for the Cameron Hall Comprehensive Renovation/Expansion project. The project involves renovating and expanding the existing 60,000 square foot Cameron Hall building, originally constructed in 1988, with a planned expansion of approximately 47,000 square feet focused on the Cameron School of Business. The solicitation includes developing new classrooms, laboratories, offices, and collaboration spaces with an emphasis on cybersecurity, information technology, and student services. The pre-proposal meeting is scheduled for July 9, 2025, at 10:00 am virtually, with proposals due by July 24, 2025, and the project contact is Kelli Jordan, Director of Architectural and Construction Services.

The total project budget is $40,050,000, and the project will be located at 601 S College Road in Wilmington, North Carolina. The solicitation seeks a construction manager to oversee a comprehensive renovation that will modernize the existing academic facility, integrating new technological infrastructure while maintaining operational continuity for the university. Interested contractors will need to demonstrate extensive experience in higher education facility renovations, technical expertise in academic space design, and the capability to manage a complex, phased construction project. While specific set-aside designations are not explicitly mentioned, the procurement suggests a competitive bidding process that will likely evaluate contractors based on their technical capabilities, project management approach, and previous experience with similar educational facility transformations.
