F.4. Consider Approval of Construction Manager At-Risk Description: The District solicited proposals for Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) services to provide preconstruction and construction phase services for anticipated districtwide HVAC improvements. The project is expected to be completed in multiple phases over several years, subject to available funding and District priorities. The Request for Proposals (RFP) was publicly advertised in accordance with applicable procurement requirements. Six (6) proposals were received and evaluated by a committee using the criteria established in the solicitation. Based on the evaluation process, staff recommends selecting BTC (Buford-Thompson Company, LTD) as the Construction Manager at Risk for this project. Selection of the CMAR authorizes the District to negotiate preconstruction services and, if appropriate, future Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) agreements for individual project phases, which will be presented to the Board for approval as required.
