The University of Colorado Colorado Springs (UCCS) is seeking a Design/Build Entity to complete a comprehensive Dining/Retail Renovation project through a two-step selection process managed by the State of Colorado's Office of the State Architect. The procurement involves modernizing campus dining facilities, integrating new food franchises, updating interior finishes, and optimizing kitchen, dining, and lounge spaces to enhance services for students, faculty, and staff. Respondents must demonstrate specific qualifications, including completion of at least two Design/Build projects over $4,000,000 in the last three years and proven bonding capability. The evaluation criteria will weight qualifications at 70% and cost at 30%, with a Jury Panel conducting the assessment. Key procurement dates include a Mandatory Pre-submittal Conference on April 15, 2025, Prequalification Submittals due April 30, 2025, Oral Interviews scheduled for May 13, 2025, and an anticipated construction timeline from May 2025 to August 2026. The project will be executed using a Design/Build Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) method, with comprehensive documentation provided in the attached agreement and general conditions. The contract includes several specific requirements and restrictions for potential respondents, mandating that contractors utilize Colorado labor for at least 80% of the work and participate in registered apprenticeship programs. Contractors must also comply with state requirements such as the Buy Clean Colorado Act, prevailing wage regulations, and submit Environmental Product Declarations for eligible materials. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly mentioned, the procurement follows standard state guidelines for inclusive contracting. The project will be subject to Colorado state procurement regulations, governmental immunity provisions, and independent contractor status requirements. Although a precise budget is not specified in the documents, the requirement for prior experience with projects over $4,000,000 suggests a substantial project scope. The contract includes provisions for potential funding adjustments, with additional funds potentially made available through written amendments, indicating flexibility in the project's financial structure.
