RFQ Construction Manager - Public Works Facility

The Town of Miltons current Department of Public Works (DPW) Highway Facility is located on Ice House Road, adjacent to Arrowhead Lake Dam and the Lamoille River. This location provides a centralized site to access the town for general maintenance and snow plowing, however, there are several drawbacks associated with the location and the garage itself. The location is too close to the Lamoille River, and not an ideal location to store salt and liquid chloride for winter operations and maintenance. The building was constructed over 70 years ago, and was never meant to be a DPW facility. The structure is too small to house all of Miltons heavy equipment, does not have a wash down bay, and has numerous other deficiencies. The new facility will be located on a 6.7-acre parcel adjacent to Bombardier Park, off Park Place, and adjacent to the Town of Milton Municipal Complex. See attached draft site plan. On Town Meeting Day 2022, Milton voters passed a $5.5M dollar bond to construct a new public works facility. Additionally, there are ARPA funds and other grants/monies available to assist the town in paying for this project. The project consists of the structural, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, etc., design and construction of a new, 30,000 square foot public works building. The town is currently working with Krebs & Lansing Consulting Engineers on geotechnical investigations and site improvements, including bringing water and wastewater infrastructure to the project site. Additionally, the Town will be contracting with an Architect/Engineering consultant, who will be responsible for working with the CM during the design phase of the project. The concept of having a CM under contract during the design phase of the project, is to save time and money by providing constructability insight, review and cost estimating during the initial stages of the project. The team of the Town of Milton DPW, Town Engineer, Town Manager, Design Architect/Engineer, Civil Engineer, and Construction Manager will work together during all phases of the project to provide a project completed on time, with quality, and within budget. Written questions are due by Thursday, July 14, 2022, 2:00 PM. It is the Towns desire to have the design and construction of the project completed by October 2023. Once an architect/engineer and construction manager are under contract, the project team will develop a schedule to meet this project completion end date. The CM shall submit a proposed schedule for the project, with the Town understanding it may change based on material availability and other factors The Construction Management Firm, prior to being awarded a contract, shall apply for registration with the Vermont Secretary of State's Office to do business in the State of Vermont, if not already so registered. The registration form may be obtained from the Vermont Secretary of State, 26 Terrace Street, Montpelier, VT 05609-1104. The telephone number is (802) 828-2386. The contract will not be executed until the Consultant is registered with the Secretary of State Office.
