Renovation of a mixed-use development in Davis, California. Completed plans call for the renovation of a 16,000-square-foot library.

Target Contract Amount: $4,000,000 - $4,500,000 The University's primary objective in utilizing the design build approach is to bring the best available integrated design and construction experience to this project. The University has determined that proposers who submit proposals on this project must be prequalified. Prequalified proposers will be required to have the following California contractor's license: General Building "B" and valid California architect's license. The Work shall include all design work, labor, material, tools, equipment, excavation, shoring, testing, inspection, commissioning and all necessary general conditions that may be reasonably inferred from the Contract Documents to provide all Design Work and Construction Work for the renovation of approximately 16,000 square feet of the Physical Sciences Engineering Library at the basement and 1st floor to provide offices, teaching and meeting rooms for growing programs associated with data sciences and artificial intelligence. Retain existing offices and meeting rooms and construct new offices, classroom and break out rooms to support program needs. Improve existing building's compliance with life safety, energy, and accessibility codes and include abatement and installation of new HVAC, and updated electrical. The second and third floors will remain occupied during construction. Target Contract Amount: $4,000,000 - $4,500,000 Estimated Contract Time: 275 days The prequalification process will be conducted in two steps and will result in the selection of finalists who will be prequalified and will be issued proposal documents for this Project. The prequalified proposers will submit price and technical proposals. The technical proposals will be scored according to an established scoring system. The price will be divided by the score to determine a price per technical point. The prequalified proposer submitting the lowest price per technical point will be the apparent low proposer for the Project. Level I will be the submittal of prequalification documents. After receipt of the prequalification documents, the University will review and determine a preliminary disposition for each submittal. Requests for clarifying information and additional data will be made at this time, if required. After receipt and review of the clarifications and additional data each prequalification submittal will receive a final determination. Firms will receive a message indicating whether they are advancing to Level II (Interview) or not. A proposer who does not pass on to the Level II (Interview) phase will be excluded from further consideration in the prequalification process. The Prequalification Questionnaire and associated documents are due at the time stated above. However, the University reserves the right to request, receive, and evaluate supplemental information after the above time and date at its sole determination. PROPOSAL SCHEDULE Following is the anticipated proposal schedule: 1. Proposal Documents available to the prequalified proposers - January 2022. 2. Proposals received - March 2022. 3. Proposals evaluated and the apparent low proposal determined - April 2022. The exact dates, times, and location will be set forth in an "Announcement to Prequalified Proposers." The University reserves the right to reject any or all responses to Prequalification Questionnaires and any or all proposals and to waive non-material irregularities in any response or proposal received. Proposal Security in the amount of 10% of the lump sum price proposal, excluding alternates, shall accompany each proposal. The Surety issuing the Bid Bond shall be, on the Bid Deadline, an admitted surety insurer (as defined in the California Code of Civil Procedure Section 995.120).
