Preconstruction Services - Frisco PFAS Mitigation

The Town of Frisco, located in Colorado, is seeking preconstruction consulting services for a PFAS Mitigation project at the existing Well 7 location. The Request for Proposal (RFP) aims to secure a contractor to provide comprehensive preconstruction services, including design review and input at 30%, 60%, and 100% completion stages. The project involves constructing a new water treatment facility with specific components such as a building, media pressure vessels, associated piping and equipment, electrical and instrumentation systems, approximately 400 linear feet of 8-inch buried pipe, chemical storage rooms, a new driveway, and site improvements. Proposers must demonstrate experience in Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) or Construction Manager General Contractor (CMGC) project delivery, PFAS or water treatment construction, and specific project experience in Colorado's mountain region. The evaluation criteria will weight qualifications and references at 30%, project manager and personnel at 30%, project approach at 20%, and fee schedule at 20%. The proposal submission deadline is August 23, 2024, at 4:00 pm, with an anticipated proposal award date of August 23, 2024, and project milestones including 30% design review in September 2024, 60% design review in December 2024, and final design review in March 2025.

The RFP does not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations or restrictions on organizational types. The project will be funded through the Colorado State Revolving Fund (SRF) loan program, and the Town reserves the right to potentially award a Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) contract to the selected preconstruction services contractor, with construction expected to begin in June 2025. The selected contractor will be responsible for providing detailed construction cost estimates, reviewing SRF loan program requirements, and offering design input, value engineering, and cost-saving alternatives. While no specific budget range is provided in the documents, the project involves significant infrastructure development for water treatment facility improvements. The Town has already contracted with a design consultant for the project and anticipates a separate future RFP/contract for construction services. The preconstruction services contract will require the selected contractor to work closely with the existing design team and provide comprehensive technical and cost-related consulting throughout the design process.
