South End Station – Track/Systems CMAR RFP
- Posting Number: 2023-Q1(Jan-Mar)-CATS-13436
- Anticipated Posting Date: 2023-03-14
- Last Updated: 03/25/24
South End Station will design and construct a new light rail station adjacent to the Publix Supermarket and 2161 Hawkins development in South End. Initially, the project team selected Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) as the appropriate method to deliver the entire project. The City issued a RFP in 2023 but received no proposals.
Following contractor interviews and further analysis, the team divided construction into two packages, Track/Systems and Civil/Station. The Track/Systems Package will be delivered by CMAR through contracts for pre-construction services and construction (later). The pre-construction services contract will include some consulting services for both packages. The Civl/Station Package will be advertised for bid in the future.
This PSR is to request development and advertisement of a RFP for the CMAR. Draft RFP and contract documents are stored separately in a Sharepoint site set up by Legal with access granted to Procurement. The design consultant is developing a cost estimate for the pre-construction services and Track/Systems construction contracts. The cost estimate in this process is a rough estimate.
