Proposers must submit detailed cost proposals for both pre-construction and construction phases, including management fees and staffing plans. The project is funded through State of California appropriations for seismic safety improvements to state-owned facilities.

Prospective CMar firms must meet specified contractor qualifications, bonding, and insurance requirements and adhere to safety protocols. Preference may be given to firms with demonstrated experience in large-scale seismic retrofit projects and proven ability to manage complex construction schedules and budgets. The selected firm will commence services upon contract execution and continue through final project completion and closeout.
