33 <br /> Orange County issued RFQ 367-005447 for the selection of a firm to be the Construction <br /> Manager at Risk ("CMAR")for the Crisis Diversion Facility on January 7, 2025. A total of eight (8) <br /> firms responded, and three (3)firms were selected to be interviewed by an Evaluation Committee <br /> that included Travis Myren, County Manager; Caitlin Fenhagen, Deputy County Manager; Alan <br /> Dorman, Director of Asset Management Services; and Tony Marimpietri, Chair of the Crisis <br /> Diversion Facility Subcommittee of the Behavioral Health Task Force. Interviews were held on <br /> March 6 and March 10, 2025. <br /> The Evaluation Committee has selected Gilbane Building Company. Gilbane's extensive <br /> experience in delivering behavioral health and crisis diversion facilities, combined with its <br /> commitment to community impact, makes it the ideal partner for this project. The company's <br /> expertise in cost-effective preconstruction services, innovative value engineering, and a proven <br /> track record in managing complex healthcare projects ensures that Orange County will receive a <br /> high-quality, efficient, and timely facility that meets the needs of the community. <br /> The contract with Gilbane includes pre-construction services for $179,928, and includes <br /> construction cost estimates, a review of project design and schedule, and other related services. <br /> Once the final design is completed, Gilbane will establish a pre-qualification process for <br /> contractors who wish to bid on the project and then accept bids from those firms. The final <br /> returned bids will be the basis for the Guaranteed Maximum Price ("GMP") for the facility's <br /> construction unless the County requires additional changes in the facility. <br /> The CMAR fees for the project are shown in the table below (Gilbane's proposal is provided at <br /> Attachment 2). The fees will be based on the GMP which the Board will adopt once the bidding <br /> has been completed. <br /> Gilbane Fees and other costs for Construction Manager At Risk <br /> Services for the Crisis Diversion Facility <br /> Preconstruction Fee $179,928.00 <br /> General Conditions (estimate) $946,379.00 <br /> Construction Manager Fee 3.75% <br /> Insurance 1.25% <br /> Subcontractor Default Insurance 1.25% <br /> Construction Contingency 4% <br /> Project Schedule <br /> Schedule <br /> Select Construction Manager At Risk/ <br /> Complete Due Diligence of Waterstone <br /> Site/Finalize Design Spring 2025 <br /> Complete Purchase of Waterstone site Summer 2025 <br /> Complete Construction Documents Summer 2025 <br /> Permitting Fall 2025 <br /> Bid/ Board Approval of Guaranteed <br /> Maximum Price/Start of Construction Winter 2025 <br />
