Addendum #3 Question: In section 3.2 coordination with a 3rd party cost estimator is noted. In section 3.4 Item B-4 alludes to a cost estimator being part of the design team. Can you clarify if there is an expectation for the design team to provide cost estimating services? This somewhat depends on how you intend to structure the project delivery (hard-bid vs CMGC) which I didn't see mentioned in the RFP. If you intend to go with a CMGC there really isn't any need for us to provide a cost estimator because the GC can reconcile with the 3rd party and come up with a "reconciled" number. If you want to put this out as a hard bid and want a second opinion on cost to reconcile with the 3rd party then we will certainly include one. My response follows: Thank you for your question. With both project delivery methods, we will require the Architect to have an independent cost estimator. If CM|GC is chosen as the delivery method, we would utilize the architect's estimator and CM|GC to both conduct estimates and then reconcile the two estimates triangulating on what we believe to be the project cost. So I guess the short answer is that regardless of the delivery method we will require two cost estimates in these challenging construction markets to determine the estimated project cost. Hope that helps provide some clarity to proceed.

Addendum #1 Due to the anticipated interest in the process for submitting a response to our Design Services RFP and mitigating the risk for in person activities, we are going to conduct the building tour virtually with Zoom (detailed information below) to walk you virtually around the building. Assistant Superintendent, Jason Hay, will manage the Zoom meeting from his desk to facilitate any questions and capture any necessary notes. We will begin the meeting with introductions at 4:00 p.m. as this virtual meeting is still mandatory. We apologize for the inconvenience and timing this change is bringing about. We had anticipated that we could conduct these tours in person but we are expecting too many people to make that as safe as we would like to see. Additionally, we are providing videos taken earlier this year when we were conducting our facility assessment RFP. Please feel free to view those at your convenience using this Google Drive link https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1dSdnTy2F23G6yoIySFhInstQYql0OkwO?usp= sharing Again, we thank you for your time and interest, and are going to conclude by reiterating that attendance at this virtual meeting is still mandatory for submitting a proposal for this Design Services RFP. Please email Jason Hay at [email protected] if you have any questions. Thank you, Jason Zoom Meeting Information Jason Hay is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.
