1.7.1. SPECIAL INCENTIVES
1.7.1.1. The spirit of this request and the intent of this project is to maximize the
economic benefit of this investment to the State Park system. Therefore,
flexibility and incentives are built into this RFP. The reader is encouraged to
find those incentives in the text and opportunities in the project while
formulating their response.
1.7.2. BONDING: Full bonding is required for this Project.
1.7.3. It is the Bidder's responsibility to thoroughly read and comply with all instructions
and requirements of this bid solicitation. Your attention is directed to the special
instructions regarding the bid proposal submissions. Please follow the Instructions
to Bidders carefully.
1.8. FUNDING SOURCE
1.8.1. This project is being funded through the Vermont Capital Construction Act funds.
1.8.1.1. Projects undertaken by FPR are exempt from State Prevailing wage in
accordance with 29 V.S.A. 161. Requirements on State construction
projects.
2. DETAILED REQUIREMENTS/DESIRED OUTCOMES:
2.1. The CM will join the project at the beginning of the Design Development phase. The CM
will be required to participate in the design process in order to enhance constructability and
design quality, reduce amount of change orders, control costs and reduce the length of the
overall construction period.
3. PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
3.1.1. The primary objective of this project is to install 5-6 rustic camping cabins at New
Discovery State Park, and if possible additional cabins within the available
budget at Lake Carmi State Park. These Rustic Cabins are a continuation and
expansion of the successful rustic cabin program in other Vermont State Parks.
The selected contractor shall have the opportunity to construct additional units if
economic efficiencies can be found. The RFP also contains financial incentives.
Finished examples of Cabins and the ultimate outcome goal of this RFP can be
viewed on the State Parks Website at https://www.vtstateparks.com/cabins.html.
3.1.2. Cabin Use - Rustic cabins are intended for gathering and sleeping only. Cooking
is done outdoors and the occupants use the shared campground toilet and
shower facilities. Overnight pricing for a stay is approximately 2-times the rate
for a lean-to in the same park. Existing cabins experience at least a 75% rate of
nightly occupancy.
3.1.3. Cabin Structure: Rustic cabins are one room enclosed structures with a porch,
with a 14' x 14' enclosed living space and a full-wide 7' deep porch. The walls
show interior open framing and for that reason are designed to provide a post
and beam "like" look. This is the design represented in the Attachment F to this
RFP which is a copy of the scope of work for previous construction. Some
CONSTRUCTION MANAGEMENT SERVICES
MULTIPLE RUSTIC CABIN INSTALLATIONS AT NEW DISCOVERY STATE PARK, MARSHFIELD, VT AND LAKE CARMI
STATE PARK, FRANKLIN, VT
versions (Button Bay) are log structure kit with "D" shaped logs providing a broad
horizontal panel look to the interior. Either of these versions are acceptable. In
addition, the state would consider a true post and beam, or standard stud
construction (either pre-manufactured or constructed on site) with interior
paneling. However, the latter option will require special attention to prevent the
wall cavities of these seasonal structures from becoming hiding spaces for mice
and other rodents. This is a significant concern for Vermont State Parks. In
the past, exterior siding has been changed to match specific park vernacular.
Exterior finish preference for New Discovery is log profile. For the cabins at Lake
Carmi the exterior siding can be adjusted to compliment local buildings but
should be wooden. The overall structural goal is to match the appearance and
character of the existing cabins. Examples of current cabins can be viewed at the
Vermont State Parks Website. The existing cabins at Lake Carmi do NOT
represent the desired dimensional and roofline aesthetic. Link to Cabin page on
website. https://www.vtstateparks.com/cabins
3.1.4. Electrical - is depicted in the drawings. Each cabin is serviced with modest
safety, air movement, light, and outlet package.

4. PROJECT BUDGET: The project estimate, which includes all pre-construction and
construction services, costs and fees, General Conditions, Cost of Work, Project
contingencies, and incentive bonus maximum is $680,000.
4.1. Financial Viability - Vermont State Parks is partially funded by visitor revenue and
draws very little from the State General Fund. This means that investments such as
cabins must meet a suitable cost point per unit to achieve financial viability as an
investment for the taxpayer. While meeting that cost point they must also be of suitable
aesthetic quality and finish to attract and sustain use at a high enough occupancy rate to
maintain the revenue stream.
4.2. The attached pdf of the summary spreadsheet, Attachment I, is the summary sheet of the
Profit/Loss Calculator used by State Parks to determine financial viability of an investment
based on fixed and operational costs related to the investment. The goal of Vermont State
Parks is to steward the taxpayer dollar and have revenue cover and preferably exceed
the annualized costs based on historic averages of revenue and expenses.
4.2.1. For New Discovery - The operational costs are fixed at the per cabin annual
rate of $3,062.96. The revenue portion of the attached sheet is based on
historic occupancy length of season for the park and current park fee data
and is fixed at the annual per cabin average of $8,046.00.
4.2.2. For Lake Carmi - The operational costs are fixed at the per cabin annual rate
of $2,559.56. The revenue portion of the attached sheet is based on historic
occupancy length of season for the park and current park fee data and is
fixed at the annual per cabin average of $6,534.000.
4.3. It is the intent of this agreement to maximize the number of cabins constructed with the
available budget. The State has identified multiple sites that the State would accept
cabins. The contractor shall have flexibility to select the sites that would afford the best
economy of scale for construction to meet that goal. The State will entertain some
additional cabins at both parks provided the contractor stays within the maximum budget.
4.4. To incentivize economies in construction while meeting the goals of the scope, The state
shall make a one-time payment of one year of annual profit for each cabin constructed
based on existing formulas and actual construction cost data amortized at the rates
detailed in the spreadsheet. The parks will be calculated separately.
