Adairsville High School Natatorium Renovation Construction Manager at Risk 10-2026-001

The contract pertains to the management and renovation of the Natatorium at Adairsville High School, undertaken by the Bartow County School System in Georgia. The project, designed by Croft and Associates, has an estimated budget of $1.5 million and is scheduled for construction from March 1, 2026, to June 1, 2026. The selected Construction Manager/Contractor at Risk (CM/C) will be responsible for delivering the project within a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) and by a Guaranteed Delivery Date (GDD). The procurement process emphasizes firm experience, project planning, cost management, and quality assurance, with mandatory pre-bid and site visits scheduled. Bidders must hold valid Georgia Business and Contractor’s Licenses, provide liability insurance, and submit documentation for Georgia Security and Immigration compliance. The contract stipulates bonds equal to 100% of the GMP, retention of pay applications until project completion, and the authority of BCSS to suspend or terminate the project at any time. The contractual framework incorporates specific local requirements without referencing federal FAR clauses. It mandates that trade contracts be approved by BCSS, and the CM/C will manage all construction activities, assuming risk for completing the project within the GMP. The scope includes removal and replacement of building systems above the pool and structural repairs, with project oversight focused on industry best practices for quality and safety. Payment procedures involve retention until project handover, and all savings below the GMP revert to BCSS. The project’s success depends on adherence to schedule, budget, and quality standards, with the owner retaining final acceptance authority. The contract emphasizes transparency, compliance with state laws, and clear communication channels, primarily through designated contacts, but does not specify detailed proposal formats, evaluation weights, or federal certification requirements.
