SUMMARY STATEMENT:
Capital Facilities solicited Construction Management (CM) services to provide support for the upcoming 2018 construction season. The intent is to alleviate the field burden on the Capital Facilities Project Managers and allow them to focus on additional projects while overseeing the efforts of the CM firm. Seven projects were initially included with the portfolio; HHES Exterior upgrades, Schools ADA Restroom Upgrades, Swimming Pool Liner Replacement, West Klutina Repave & Sidewalks, City Wide Roof Project, Kelsey Dock Interpretative Center, and the Hospital O2 Generator. A three step process was utilized to determine the most qualified firm including statement of qualifications, interviews, and a day-rate price. Arcadis was the most qualified and best fit firm based on the selection criteria and was chosen to represent the City on the HHES exterior, Schools ADA, and the Hospital O2 generator projects. Council will be presented with the three separate contracts for approval.
