Request for Qualifications (CM at Risk Contract) continued

The preconstruction and construction services are generally described below. Subcontracts including but are not limited to

Mechanical, Electrical, Fire Protection, Roofing, Landscaping, Security, Carpentry and General Trades will be awarded by

the CM to prequalified vendors using a competitive process. The parties will engage in an “open book” pricing method in

which all subcontracted work shall be based upon competitive pricing that will be reviewed by the Contracting Authority

and/or Owner, the A/E and the CM. The Contracting Authority and/or Owner shall have access to all books, records,

documents and other data in the CM's possession related to itself, its subcontractors and material suppliers pertaining to

bidding, pricing or performance of the Agreement.

Preconstruction Services: The CM will work cooperatively with the Contracting Authority and/or Owner, A/E, and Project

Team, and will provide, among other services, schedule development, estimate development, Guaranteed Maximum

the Contracting Authority’s approval of the GMP, the parties will enter into an amendment to the Agreement establishing

the Contract Sum (“GMP Amendment”). If the proposed Contract Sum exceeds the Project Budget established for

reserves the right to approve the CM’s selection of subcontractors and any supplemental terms to the form subcontract.

qualifications and experience of the particular individuals identified as the candidate's proposed team for the Project. After

proposal meetings.
