control for the demolition of all capital improvements at the location and of the type(s)

described herein. This project will include demolition of all above and below ground

structures and utilities. In accordance with N.C.G.S. § 143-128.1A (c), (8), Option A,

including a listing of all designers and all primary subcontractors proposed.

GCS is the third-largest district in North Carolina, serving 68,000 students across 120

schools in urban, suburban and rural areas. Because we are a larger district, we are

prepared to succeed in higher education, or in the career of their choice.

Respondents will need to assemble a team of professionals, including but not limited

to, those in the design, permitting, abatement, demolition, construction fields and to

provide technical input for the public communications plan for the execution of this

project.

Respondents may only submit one proposal in response to this RFQ. GCS reserves the

right to make final decisions regarding the utilization of subcontractors/subconsultants

and to require the removal and replacement of any personnel of the awarded team. For

instance, if a contractor submits a proposal with multiple design subconsultants, GCS

may determine which designer (or combination of designers) is to be utilized.

1.2 Funding/Authority

Funding for this project is provided by the 2020 Bond Referendum passed by Guilford

County Residents.
