American Fork City Fire Station 52

American Fork City is seeking architectural services for the design and construction of Fire Station 52 through a competitive Request for Proposals (RFP) using the Construction Manager/General Contractor (CMGC) alternative delivery method. The procurement, released on February 19, 2020, with proposals due by March 16, 2020 at 5:00 PM MDT, targets professional engineering services, fire protection, nonresidential building construction, and public safety services. The selected architectural firm will be responsible for three primary tasks: providing technical assistance during CMGC selection, preparing detailed design and construction drawings with specifications, costs, and schedules, and obtaining necessary permits, and delivering comprehensive construction services including inspection, oversight, submittal review, design conformance, change order management, and project closeout. Interested firms must submit proposals through the Utah Public Procurement Place, with Aaron Wilson (awilson@afcity.net or +1 801-763-3060 ext. 662) serving as the primary contact. The solicitation is structured as a competitive bid, with potential evaluation criteria likely focusing on technical expertise, project understanding, proposed methodology, and past performance in similar municipal infrastructure projects.

While no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on respondent types are explicitly mentioned in the documentation, the procurement appears open to qualified architectural and engineering firms with demonstrated experience in public safety facility construction. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified in the available materials. The RFP does not specify a precise budget or funding source, which suggests potential flexibility in project scope and investment. The procurement covers jurisdictions including Salt Lake County and Scipio Town, indicating a regional focus for this infrastructure development. The attached documents, including the original RFP, two addendums, and a pre-proposal meeting sign-in sheet, provide comprehensive background for potential bidders. The project's ultimate goal appears to be expediting facility occupancy through the CMGC delivery method, which allows for more integrated and efficient project management.
