RFP-MINES ODC23-004 - RFP for CM/GC - Classrooms and Parking Garage II

The Colorado School of Mines (“Mines”) is proposing a new mixed-use classroom/parking structure immediately west of the Beck Venture Center between 17th and 18th street, in Golden. This project is necessitated by changing conditions on campus and is intended to address two emerging campus concerns: parking deficiency and classroom deficiency.  

The proposed classroom building will address these concerns by providing a parking structure with 935 parking spaces, wrapped with a four story, 46,000 GSF building that will provide 17,000 NSF of classroom space, 8,000 sf of faculty office space and a variety of breakout space for student study.

The process to be used in the selection of the CM/GC is comprised of two steps. STEP I - Prequalification; STEP II Oral Interview/Cost Proposal. Upon evaluation of Prequalification Submittals, a short list of firms will be invited to oral interviews. Both qualifications and cost will be considered in the final ranking of firms with qualifications given 70% of the value of the weighted criteria and fees for the Cost/ Proposal given 30%.

The scope of services will include assistance to the State during the process of assessment, design, construction, and warranty period. Specific tasks to be performed by the Construction Manager/General Contractor (CM/GC) include those generally performed by the CM/GC construction community where the Construction Manager is also the Contractor. A sample copy of the State’s CM/GC contract is contained within the RFP. A Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) will be required at the completion of Design Development phase.
