CM/GC for Staff Rental Housing Construction Project

Summit School District is seeking a Construction Manager/General Contractor (CM/GC) for a staff rental housing project in Silverthorne, Colorado, located within Sedgwick County. The procurement is a Request for Qualifications and Proposal (RFQ/P) for designing and constructing approximately 60 rental units on a 10-acre Summit Education Center Site, with the first phase involving a 36-unit apartment building and two 12-unit flat buildings. Key deliverables include comprehensive project management, utility coordination, local expense tracking, schedule management, budget control, and quality assurance. The evaluation criteria involve a scoring matrix assessing firm information, team qualifications, project experience, schedule, project approach, and references. Critical procurement dates include proposal submissions due by October 31, 2024 at 5:00 PM, interview invitations to be sent on November 6, 2024, potential interviews on November 15, 2024, and final candidate notifications by November 18, 2024. The procurement will utilize a modified AIA A133-2017 contract with AIA A201 General Conditions, and the selected CM/GC will provide both preconstruction and construction services.

The project's funding is contingent upon a November 2024 bond ballot measure, with anticipated hard construction costs ranging between $20-$25 million. While no specific set-aside designations or disadvantaged enterprise requirements are explicitly stated, the district demonstrates flexibility in construction approaches, being open to modular construction and potential townhome expansions within the budget constraints. The project aims to start construction in July 2025 with completion targeted for July 31, 2026. Although LEED certification is not mandatory, the owner shows interest in sustainable design components. The district has engaged Norris Design for master planning and is exploring potential additional grant funding from sources like GOCO, DOLA, and the Colorado Health Foundation. Existing utilities are assumed to be available near Bryan Lane, and the owner emphasizes minimizing site impact during construction, with logistical coordination to be established between the owner and the selected firm.
