Description
The Sonoma State University is seeking a design-build firm to provide collaborative design-build services for the expansion of the Nursing Program. The project involves renovating an existing facility to create a new "home" for the expanding program, including exam rooms, skills lab, simulation room, student lounge space, department and faculty offices, and other support spaces. The project has a direct construction cost budget of approximately $10,000,000. The design-build firm will be required to provide feasibility, design, preconstruction, and design-build construction services. The firm must be licensed in the state of California with a 'B' license and registered to bid public works with the California Department of Industrial Relations (DIR). The firm must also be prequalified by the CSU Prequalification Program Administrator.
Some key points to consider are:
* The project will be delivered using a modified design-build process, with a two-phased approach.
* The design-build firm will be required to provide a guaranteed maximum price (GMP) and schedule.
* The firm must have experience with renovation, modernization, and assessment of existing buildings, including navigating California Building Standards Code (Title 24).
* The firm must be able to work collaboratively with all project stakeholders to develop scope and budget in tandem.
* The firm must have experience with design-build projects, particularly those similar in size and complexity to the proposed project.
