DESCRIPTION


A government authority in Durham, North Carolina is seeking a qualified firm to provide Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) services for a public-sector project. The underlying study for the project evaluated existing conditions, future operational needs, and potential facility alternatives, and produced a conceptual design at approximately the 15% level, a preliminary construction phasing approach, and a planning-level cost estimate.

The selected CMAR firm is expected to have at least ten years of verifiable experience delivering CMAR, construction management, or general contracting services for projects of similar size, scope, complexity, and operational requirements. Preference is given to firms with public-sector experience, particularly with transit agencies, municipalities, state agencies, or other governmental entities. Experience with complex mechanical, electrical, plumbing, communications, and operational systems is also important, especially for transit operations facilities, fleet maintenance facilities, industrial facilities, or similar environments.

The firm must provide and maintain a qualified project team throughout all phases of the project, including roles such as Project Executive, Project Manager, Preconstruction Manager, and Superintendent. Team members should have demonstrated experience with phased construction, work in active or occupied facilities, operational continuity requirements, stakeholder coordination, and multi-system integration. The contract period is one year, and an optional pre-offer conference is scheduled for July 22, 2026.
