Design and construction services for columbus convention and trade center parking garage

The Columbus Consolidated Government (the City) in Georgia is issuing a Request for Proposals (RFP) for a qualified Design-Builder to design and construct an approximately 500-space parking garage for the Columbus Convention and Trade Center. The selected Design-Builder will be responsible for all design and construction services related to the delivery of the new parking garage. Proposals are due by August 16, 2024 at 5:00 PM Eastern. The budget for this project is limited to $10,000,000. The City is committed to using Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBEs) and expects the successful contractor to utilize DBE subcontractors. The successful contractor must furnish Performance and Payment Bonds in the amount of 100% of the total contract value. The contract will require the contractor to comply with various federal requirements if the procurement is federally funded, which has not yet been determined.

The City reserves the right to negotiate changes to the standard AIA A141 agreement, and the contract will be reviewed and approved by the City Attorney's Office. The RFP does not provide details on pricing terms, set-asides, incumbents, or funding sources. However, it does state that the selected Design-Builder will be responsible for the full design and construction of the new parking garage for the Columbus Convention and Trade Center.
