CMAR Services for Windsor Forest Community Center - Event No. 11788

The City of Savannah is seeking qualified construction firms to provide Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) services for the Windsor Forest Community Center project through a Request for Proposal (RFP) process. The procurement opportunity, identified by Event No. 11788, is specifically targeting firms capable of managing the construction of a new community center in the Windsor Forest area. Electronic submissions will be exclusively accepted through the City of Savannah Purchasing Division supplier portal at www.savannahga.gov/bids, with proposals due by 1:30 p.m. on Tuesday, September 2, 2025. A mandatory pre-proposal meeting is scheduled for 10:00 a.m. on Wednesday, August 13, 2025, at the Floyd Adams Complex (Room 202) to discuss project specifications and address potential questions. Prospective bidders must submit proposals using the Board of Purchase Proposal Forms, and the city reserves the right to reject any submissions or waive formal requirements. The proposal will likely evaluate firms based on their construction management expertise, experience with community center projects, technical capabilities, and overall project approach.

The procurement opportunity appears to promote equal opportunities for vendors, with the City of Savannah explicitly stating its commitment to inclusive contracting practices. While specific set-aside designations are not detailed in the provided information, the language suggests potential opportunities for diverse businesses. No incumbent vendors or specific budget ranges were disclosed in the contract opportunity description. The project is located in Chatham County, Georgia, which may influence local participation preferences or regional economic development goals. The CMAR service model indicates that the selected firm will likely be responsible for both construction management and potentially some design-phase coordination, offering a comprehensive approach to delivering the Windsor Forest Community Center project. Interested firms should carefully review the full RFP documentation and prepare comprehensive proposals that demonstrate their technical capabilities, project management expertise, and understanding of community center construction requirements.
