AI Contract Overview
The Town of La Plata, Maryland, is soliciting proposals for a progressive design-build project to develop Phase 1 of the Dorchester Community Center. The scope of work involves the design, preconstruction, permitting, construction, and commissioning of a standalone Gymnasium and Multipurpose Assembly Building. This facility must be fully operational upon substantial completion while providing a structural and utility framework to support future Phase 2 and 3 expansions. The project is governed by Maryland law and is subject to Maryland Prevailing Wage requirements under COMAR 21.11. The Town has established a total project budget not to exceed $3,100,000, which covers all design fees, construction costs, FF&E, and contingencies. The selection process is based on a 100-point scale, weighing technical expertise and team qualifications (30%), project approach and community engagement (30%), conceptual design quality (20%), and the price proposal structure (20%). The selected Design-Builder must provide a project team of Maryland-licensed architects and engineers. Key contract terms include a 10% retainage (reducible to 5% at substantial completion), liquidated damages of $500 per calendar day for delays beyond the substantial completion date, and a requirement for performance and payment bonds totaling 100% of the accepted Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP). The project timeline spans approximately 25 months, with the GMP developed collaboratively in month 7 and substantial completion targeted for month 24.
