RFQ# 2036374 Wilmer Health Clinic CMAR

Parkland Health and Hospital System is soliciting a Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) for the Wilmer Health Clinic project located at 3700 N. Interstate 45, Wilmer, Texas. The selected CMAR will serve as the District's construction advisor, providing all labor, management, and coordination for both the preconstruction and construction phases. The project is governed by Texas Government Code Chapter 2269, Subchapter F, and requires compliance with OSHA, ADA, and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act. Key deliverables include a warranty walkthrough eleven months after substantial completion, and the CMAR is expected to collaborate with the District and Architect to establish a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP). The selection process is a two-step evaluation based on best value. First, the District will rank offerors based on qualifications, including company profile, bonding capacity, safety performance, leadership resumes, and a delivery track record of three CMAR projects completed within five years. Up to five finalists may be invited to give presentations scored on organization, content, delivery, and engagement. Mandatory requirements include the submission of Texas Ethics Commission Form 1295 for contracts valued at $1 million or more and a comprehensive M/WBE participation plan. Contract administration requires applications for payment to be submitted in Excel and PDF formats, with reimbursement limited to actual costs incurred. The District maintains a unilateral right to direct the payment of subcontractor retainage if invoices remain unpaid after 60 days. The agreement mandates performance and payment bonds, adherence to prevailing wage rates, and strict confidentiality regarding patient information, while noting that general contract information is subject to the Texas Public Information Act.
