UNCW ISAT CMR REV_P18076.pdf

This document is a Construction Manager-at-Risk (CMR) solicitation from the University of North Carolina Wilmington (UNCW) for the Integrated Science and Technology (ISAT) Building project. The solicitation seeks a construction manager to build a new 90,000 square foot facility on the university's main campus, designed to support interdisciplinary academic programs in general sciences, health science, medical education, engineering, technology, information sciences, and computing. The pre-proposal meeting is scheduled for 07/10/2025 at 10:00 am, with proposal submissions due by 5:00 pm EST on 07/28/2025. Electronic and hard copy submissions will be accepted, with the project to be managed by Nicholas Troutman and submitted to Heather Peedin at the Office of Facilities.

The project has a total budget of $83 million, with $8 million currently authorized for advance planning, design, and preconstruction services. The university will utilize the Construction Manager-at-Risk delivery method and reserves the option to retain the selected firm through full design and construction phases. The proposed building will be located along the Chancellor's Walk on UNCW's main campus and will feature active learning environments, collaborative areas, makerspaces, and technology-rich instructional spaces. The facility is intended to bring together diverse academic disciplines and provide a collaborative, interdisciplinary workspace for various scientific and technological programs.
