The University of Arkansas at Little Rock, in accordance with the policies of the Board of Trustees, is soliciting responses from qualified firms to provide general contractor construction management services for the UALR Central Campus Trojan Way and Ottenheimer Library Plaza renovation. The intent of this invitation is to establish an agreement with a qualified firm to provide general contracting and construction management services for the construction of this project. The University of Arkansas at Little Rock campus stretches over 250 tree-covered acres in Little Rock's midtown neighborhood. The campus is organized around a main pedestrian walkway that provides access to all campus academic buildings and support spaces. The current walkway was developed in phases along with the development of the campus. This central campus project will transform the core of campus by creating a new Trojan Way pedestrian walk. The renovated Trojan Way will add a formal organizational element through the central campus in an otherwise informal landscape using a hierarchy of pedestrian routes, access nodes, and consistency in materials. The center piece of the design will be the renovated Ottenheimer Library Plaza. The renovated plaza will offer a flexible design for formal and informal gathering that is integrated with the Trojan Way and the primary east west campus pedestrian walkways. The project will establish a campus standard going forward for landscape design elements, planting, materials, site furnishings, lighting, and irrigation. The University requires incorporating native plants into the design. University encourages proposals from firms with a diverse workforce, including women and minority owned firms and joint ventures including such firms. University of Arkansas at Little Rock reserves the right to reject any or all responses and to waive any formalities.
