The Project schedule is regulatory-driven, and Owner is undertaking CM/GC services with the expectation of an accelerated schedule relative to a traditional design-bid-build approach. Achieving substantial completion of the Project by September 30, 2025, and final completion, including commissioning, start-up and performance testing by October 31, 2025 is a high priority for Owner. Owner wishes to hire the CM/GC Contractor to benefit from, among other things, the CM/GC Contractor's assistance in Project planning. Services will be provided in two phases: Phase I, pre-construction services, and Phase II, construction services as described in the attached RFP. Owner intends to negotiate the price for each phase separately. The CM/GC Contractor will provide pre-construction services throughout the design of the Project. At the completion of the design, or at any point in the pre-construction phase, prior to the completion of design, as may be required by Owner, the CM/GC Contractor will be required to provide a GMP Proposal to act as the CM/GC Contractor for the construction and assume the risk of delivering the Project on schedule at or under the GMP. Acceptance of the GMP Proposal, issuance of a GMP Amendment by Owner and Notice to Proceed will initiate the construction phase, which will include providing construction of the Project. The site of the Project is located at the Forest Grove Water Resource Recovery Facility (Forest Grove WRRF) at 1345 SW Fern Hill Road, Forest Grove, Oregon 97116 (Site).
