CM/GC for New TSD District Office

Alpine School District's Department of Purchasing is issuing an RFP for Construction Manager/General Contractor services for a new Timpanogos School District office in Lindon, Utah, on behalf of Timpanogos School District's Physical Facilities Department (Solicitation #TSD07302026), with proposals due July 30, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. Mountain Time. The project is a newly established school district's central administrative headquarters on an undeveloped 1-acre portion of an existing district site, approximately 22,000 square feet, with construction anticipated to commence in October 2026 and completion targeted for June 2027.

The CM/GC scope comprises two phases: pre-construction services including design meetings, cost estimation, schedule development, and constructability reviews, and construction comprising furnishing and installation of all required work. Work may be bid in multiple packages such as excavation, footings, foundations, and structural steel. The Fixed Limit of Construction Cost is $8 million. All CM/GC firms and subcontractors must hold valid Utah contractor's licenses at proposal submission.

The fee proposal must include lump-sum pre-construction and construction management fees, monthly construction supervision costs, payment and performance bond costs, and contractor change order markups capped at 5% for work up to $50,000 and 3% for work exceeding $50,000, plus self-performed work markups capped at 15% for work up to $50,000 and 10% for work exceeding $50,000. Pricing is public information and cannot be claimed confidential.

Evaluation is weighted 200 points for technical components—contractor team strength (60 points), past performance (100 points), and management and safety plan approach (100 points)—and 100 points for the fee proposal. Award will be made to the responsive and responsible offeror with the highest score. Proposals must include five required schedules: certification, firm qualifications, management and safety plan, licensure, and fee proposal with guaranteed maximum price and bonds. Bid security is required as a surety bond equal to at least 5% of the bid amount, with successful contractors required to provide 100% payment and performance bonds. The contract incorporates Timpanogos School District standard terms and conditions; exceptions are discouraged and subject to District approval. The District may cancel the contract with 60 days' notice due to lack of funding or poor performance.
