Spring Creek Construction Management Services

Spring Creek Charter Academy (SCCA) in Bainbridge, Georgia, is seeking a Construction Management (CM) at Risk firm to construct a new K-12 school facility through a competitive Request for Proposal (RFP) process. The project involves building an approximately 82,000 square foot school with comprehensive infrastructure, including classrooms, cafeteria, gymnasium, and administrative spaces. Proposals are due by 3:00 PM on October 16, 2025, with a mandatory pre-proposal conference scheduled for September 29, 2025. The evaluation criteria will comprehensively assess firms based on several key factors: firm overview, proposed management team qualifications, relevant construction experience, proximity to the project site, approach to CM-at-Risk methodology, claims history, financial information, and proposed fees. The selection timeline includes potential shortlisting of firms by October 22, 2025, with possible presentations by shortlisted firms on October 28, 2025. The selected Construction Manager will be responsible for full project management, encompassing preconstruction services, bidding processes, construction management, and post-occupancy warranty support.

The project, located in Dade County, Georgia, will be financed through bond financing and managed by 4PM as the Owner's Representative, with Studio 8 Design serving as the project Architect. While no specific set-aside designations are mentioned, the RFP outlines stringent insurance requirements, including mandates for general liability, automobile liability, builder's risk, and workers' compensation coverage. The total construction budget is $25,500,000, providing a clear financial framework for potential bidders. No incumbent vendors are explicitly identified in the documentation. Interested firms must follow strict communication protocols, with the RFP explicitly prohibiting direct phone calls or school visits and directing all inquiries through the specified website and document channels. The comprehensive nature of the RFP suggests a preference for experienced, financially stable construction management firms with demonstrated capability in educational facility construction.
