Tarrant County is seeking proposals from qualified construction firms or contractors to provide Construction Manager-At-Risk services for the expansion of the Plaza Parking Garage. The selected firm will assume the financial risk for the construction project at a predetermined price and will offer ongoing consultation to the County during and after any redesign phases, ensuring compliance with all relevant laws and project requirements. The project involves constructing an extension to the existing parking garage, with work hours in the existing building limited to nighttime hours from 6:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m., Monday through Friday, to minimize disruptions. The County aims to streamline the selection process through a one-step procurement method, encouraging interested firms to review all proposal documents, which are available for download prior to the pre-proposal meeting. The project is categorized under NAICS code 333924, with a contract size estimated between 20 and 40 million dollars. The primary point of contact for the solicitation is Senior Buyer Allan Tucker, reachable via email or phone. The contract documents include detailed technical specifications prepared by Bennett Partners and supporting engineering disciplines such as civil, landscape, MEPFE, and structural engineering firms. Additionally, the procurement process emphasizes adherence to the County’s Historically Underutilized Businesses (HUB) policy, which promotes equal opportunity for certified HUBs and sets a 20% good faith participation goal. The solicitation process is supported by various addenda and forms, including responses to questions from potential bidders, and emphasizes compliance with bidding procedures, including the submission of deficiency and deviation forms. Overall, the project aims to enhance the County’s infrastructure through a transparent, inclusive, and well-coordinated construction management approach.
