J-409-CxA Building Commissioning UWG - Pafford Building

The Georgia State Financing and Investment Commission (GSFIC), on behalf of the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia and the University of West Georgia (UWG), is seeking firms to provide building commissioning services for the renovation of the Pafford Building on the UWG campus. The project involves renovating the approximately 43,311 gross square feet Pafford Building, originally constructed in 1968, to address capital renewal, deferred maintenance, and space reconfiguration needs. The selected commissioning agent will be required to perform a variety of tasks during the design, construction, and occupancy phases of the project, including developing the Owner's Project Requirements, reviewing design documents, witnessing functional performance tests, and providing a final commissioning report. The preliminary construction budget for the project is $13,500,000, and the delivery method will be construction manager at-risk. Statements of qualifications are due by January 25, 2024, and the evaluation criteria focus on the firm's stability, experience, qualifications, and suitability for the project.

The GSFIC encourages participation from small, minority, and woman-owned business enterprises for this project. The Selection Committee has identified Andrews Hammock & Powell and Farnsworth Group as the highest ranked firms to provide the required commissioning services. No other details are provided regarding the specific contract terms, pricing, or incumbent contractors. The available information suggests a contract award value within the $13,500,000 preliminary construction budget for the overall Pafford Building renovation project.
