Request for Proposal for Construction Manager at Risk

Grace Congregate Housing Corporation (GCHC) is seeking a qualified Construction Manager at Risk for the comprehensive renovation of Grace House, a 40-unit affordable housing development located at 25 Abbott Terrace in Waterbury, Connecticut. The project involves rehabilitating a four-story building with one-bedroom apartments serving residents aged 62 and older, with specific renovation work targeting both the exterior building structure and individual housing units. Interested firms must submit a detailed "Statement of Qualifications and Response to Request for Proposals" by December 7, 2023, at 2:00 PM EST. The procurement is being managed by Elderly Housing Management Inc, with two primary contacts: Rochelle Graham (Property Manager) and Sophia Rosa. While specific evaluation criteria are not explicitly detailed in the documents, respondents will likely be assessed on their construction management experience, qualifications, and ability to successfully complete an affordable housing renovation project. The solicitation period opened on November 2, 2023, and vendors are expected to provide comprehensive proposals demonstrating their capability to manage the project's unique requirements.

The procurement appears to be open to all vendors without specific set-aside designations or restrictions on organizational types. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are mentioned in the documentation. The project will be primarily funded through two sources: the Department of Economic & Community Development Community Investment Fund and the Waterbury Community Services Investment Program (WCSIP) ARPA funding. While exact budget ranges or total project values are not specified in the available documents, the funding sources suggest a structured and potentially significant investment in the housing renovation. Delivery terms are specified as Free On Board Destination, with payment terms to be determined by the selected vendor. The lack of detailed financial information indicates that interested construction management firms will need to develop comprehensive pricing strategies that align with the project's scope and funding parameters.
