Description
The Town of Rolesville is seeking qualifications for an owner’s representative for the Rolesville Town Campus Project.
Prior experience with government capital project management is required.
Background
The Town of Rolesville, North Carolina is a municipality of approximately 15,000 population, located to the northeast
of the City of Raleigh. The Town is planning to construct a multi-building governmental complex on a 17-acre parcel
close to the downtown area (408 East Young Street). When complete, the site is expected to include a Police Station,
Fire Station, Town Hall, Community Center, and a Wake County public library.
The first phase of the project includes the site development, Police Station, and Fire Station. The current project team
consists of the design team led by ADW Architects, PA, the Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) Samet Corp, and
Town staff. The site preparation, Police Station, and Fire Station projects are all currently in the design development
phase. The library design is currently underway with Wake County and is being entirely managed by their staff.
Scope of Project Management Services
At this point in the project, the Town has evaluated its internal capacity and capabilities and identified the following
capital project management, owner’s representative, and advisory areas where assistance may be needed. A final
scope of services will be determined between the Town and its selected owner’s representative.
Design and Construction:
• Ensure that the project’s strategic programmatic and financial goals are met
• Advise Town as critical project decisions are made
• Review drawings, reports, and other documentation to ensure that work product aligns with project goals,
schedule, and budget
• Review cost estimates and participate in value engineering exercises as needed
• Manage the project budget, including invoices and pay applications, owner’s soft costs, and general budget
monitoring
Procurement and Contract Management:
• Assist in the preparation of procurement documents
• Negotiate and manage contracts with contractors, consultants, and vendors
Quality Assurance and Regulatory Compliance:
• Monitor on-site construction activities
• Ensure that construction work meets project specifications and quality standards
• Address any quality issues and implement corrective actions
• Ensure that the project complies with all relevant local, state, and federal regulations
• Obtain necessary permits and approvals, coordinate inspections, and address regulatory issues
• Maintain project documentation
Communication and Reporting:
• Provide regular updates to project owners
• Serve as the primary point of contact for the Town on the project design team
• Coordinate with Wake County employees involved in the construction of the library, as necessary
• Coordinate with the Finance Director for all financing-related and reporting requirements
Project Closeout:
• Oversee the final stages of construction and project closeout activities
• Ensure that all punch list items are completed
