SUMMARY
DESCRIPTION
A government authority in Fresno, California is seeking a qualified vendor to provide progressive design-build services. The selected firm will deliver design, preconstruction, and construction services in two distinct phases, using a collaborative delivery approach that emphasizes early coordination, open-book cost transparency, and shared risk during design development.
The scope includes providing cost estimates at the end of each design phase along with updated guaranteed maximum pricing that includes construction and owner contingencies. The vendor will be expected to review and confirm the initial budget, provide ongoing cost management to keep both schematic and final design within the target GMP, and perform quality assurance and quality control throughout preconstruction and construction.
Additional responsibilities include construction planning, phasing, scheduling, site logistics, and development of a safety plan from design through project completion. Questions are due no later than August 12, 2026.
