Construction Management Services for Lakeville Elementary School Renovation Comprehensive Project

The School Board of Orange County, Florida, issued solicitation RFQ 2609CM for Construction Management at Risk services to oversee a comprehensive renovation and remodeling project at Lakeville Elementary School, located at 2015 Lakeville Road, Apopka, Florida. With an estimated construction cost of 24,500,000 dollars, the project aims to upgrade all building and site facilities, systems, and finishes to meet current design guidelines and educational requirements. The scope includes addressing existing deficiencies, improving life safety and accessibility, remodeling spaces for functional equity, and potentially demolishing existing buildings for new construction. Because the work will occur on an occupied campus, the project includes the provision of temporary facilities and classrooms to support construction phasing. The procurement process began with a public advertisement on May 8, 2026, and a proposal deadline of June 1, 2026. Following a rigorous evaluation process that included a pre-submittal meeting, shortlist scoring based on experience and financial capability, and formal interviews on June 29, 2026, several firms were considered, including Johnson-Laux Construction, McCree Design Builders, Construct Two Construction Managers, and Welbro Building Corporation. Based on final rankings and a top score of 91.75, the School Board issued a notice of intended decision on June 30, 2026, to award the contract to T&G Corporation dba T&G Constructors.
