CONSTRUCTION MANAGER AT RISK (CMAR) FOR SHOAL CREEK WASTEWATER POLLUTION CONTROL PLANT (WPCP) EXPANS

The City of Griffin (hereafter referred to as Owner orThe City) is requesting a Proposal from firms (hereafter Firm or Firms) interested in providing Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) Services, including preconstruction and construction, for a plant expansion at the Shoal Creek Water Pollution Control Plant (WPCP). The WPCP expansion will upgrade the plant from a 2.25 MGD plant sending effluent to the Blanton Mill Land Application System (LAS) to a 3.0 MGD plant discharging effluent to the nearby Shoal Creek. Additional components of the WPCP will be constructed as budget allows to prepare the plant for an upgrade to 5.0 MGD in the future. The WPCP expansion may include upgrades to influent screens, influent pump station, grit removal, biological treatment process, tertiary disk filters, UV disinfection, cascade aerator, creek discharge, aerobic digesters, biosolids dewatering press, operations building, as well as associated piping, appurtenances, sites work, and demolition.
The City will select one (1) Firm with experience delivering wastewater treatment plant construction via the CMAR model to participate in the design process and construct the project.
This project may be funded in whole or in part by the Georgia Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF), or the Water Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (WIFIA). All associated federal funding requirements will apply to the contract. All contractors and subcontractors are required to be registered in the federal System for Award Management (SAM) and may not be debarred from doing business with the federal government. Respondents on this work will be required to comply with all applicable federal regulations.
The Engineer is currently 60% complete with the WPCP expansion design. The CMAR will work closely with the Engineer in reviewing the design, establishing pricing, and offering value engineering suggestions as the design process continues.
The intent is that project costs will be evaluated
