About this opportunity
The County of Sacramento Department of Airports is requesting Statements of Qualifications from construction managers at risk for preconstruction and construction services on the Sacramento International Airport Taxiway A, A3, and A13 Pavement Rehabilitation Project, with SOQ submissions due July 30, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. and an optional pre-proposal conference on July 7, 2026.
Respondents must hold a current, valid Class A California Contractors License in good standing and be registered with the California Department of Industrial Relations for public works under California Labor Code sections 1771.5 and 1725.5. Performance and payment bonds equal to 100 percent of contract value and comprehensive insurance coverage are required.
The project encompasses full-depth pavement reconstruction of approximately 8,600 feet of Taxiway A (originally constructed circa 1965, measuring 125 feet wide) and connectors, including base bid work for Portland Cement Concrete taxiway pavement, Asphaltic Concrete shoulders, LED lighting upgrades, and storm drain improvements. The Department will enter into a single CMAR contract structured in two phases: Phase 1 provides preconstruction services with a negotiated fee, and Phase 2 encompasses construction under one or more Guaranteed Maximum Price agreements. The Department reserves the right to terminate at Phase 1 completion if proposed GMPs are unacceptable. Construction is projected to commence by July 2027 with base bid completion by 2030.
Strongly preferred qualifications include delivery of at least two CMAR projects of similar size and complexity with GMP management experience and three airfield construction projects on active airfield environments completed within the past ten years. Evaluation uses best-value selection on SOQ scoring (qualifications and experience, 20 points; past performance, 20 points; project understanding, 20 points; project approach, 20 points; scope approach, 10 points; innovation and sustainability, 10 points), followed by interviews for highest-scoring respondents with sealed fee proposals evaluated thereafter. The project anticipates partial or full Federal Aviation Administration Airport Improvement Program funding, requiring compliance with applicable federal laws and FAA provisions. State prevailing wages apply to preconstruction services; federal prevailing wages apply to federally funded construction work. The Department pursues Envision Verification with a minimum Silver award target. Questions are due July 17, 2026; final responses post July 24, 2026. Interviews for shortlisted respondents are anticipated August 24–28, 2026, with notice of intent to award by September 17, 2026 and Board approval by November 17, 2026.
