101 AGENDA ITEM BACKGROUND TO: GOVERNING BOARD DATE FROM: PRESIDENT June 11, 2012 SUBJECT: Award of Contract: Construction Project Management Services REASON FOR BOARD CONSIDERATION ACTION ITEM NUMBER ENCLOSURE(S) Page 1 of 1 A.2 BACKGROUND: Classroom renovations are anticipated as the District continues to meet the commitment to improve college facilities and expend remaining bond funds. Master agreements for management of such renovations enable the District to specify the general scope and terms of the desired service. Once in place, they allow for short form contracts to be executed for specific projects, upon Board approval when necessary. Master agreements carry no dollar commitment. A Request for Proposal (RFP) was sent out in order to solicit proposals and is a part of the process for the District’s selection and retention of one or more Construction Project Management services firms to provide construction project management and related services for projects planned by the District. Several proposals were received that demonstrated professional capability and to provide project management services that facilitate the pre-construction planning, bidding, construction, closeout and occupancy of projects, and work with agencies where necessary (including DSA), as directed by the Vice President of Administrative Services and/or Designee.
