Modular Classrooms Lease Leaseback Construction Services

Union School District is soliciting proposals for a lease-leaseback construction project to develop modular classrooms and associated sitework at Alta Vista and Guadalupe Elementary Schools in San Jose, California. With a project estimate of 8 million dollars, the scope includes demolishing existing facilities, preparing sites with utility infrastructure and foundations, and installing four single-story modular buildings. The selected developer will provide comprehensive preconstruction services, including constructability reviews, value engineering, master scheduling, and cost estimating, culminating in a Guaranteed Maximum Price. The project is funded by general obligation bonds Measure J (2014) and Measure R (2022). The developer must be prequalified and demonstrate experience with public school facilities, ensuring strict compliance with OPSC, DSA, and Title 24 requirements. Key contractual obligations include adhering to prevailing wage laws, skilled and trained workforce requirements, and a three percent participation goal for Disabled Veterans Business Enterprises. The project requires performance and payment bonds, as well as specific insurance coverage. Proposals are due by September 17, 2026, and will be evaluated based on a 125-point scoring system, with a specific focus on the history of meeting project schedules and liquidated damages.
