All questions must be submitted by email; 90922 90924 90930 95826 MFA, Program Management, LLC, acting as the Program Manager (PM) on behalf of MaconBibb County (the Owner), is soliciting proposals from qualified firms to provide Construction Manager-at-Risk (CMAR) services for the New Macon Arena. The project is intended to enhance quality of life in MaconBibb County by attracting new events and entertainment, retaining and better accommodating current events, and catalyzing new development in the surrounding area. The CMAR will work closely with the Owner, MFA, the Architect/Engineer (A/E), and other stakeholders during preconstruction and construction to deliver a firstclass, sustainable arena, on schedule and within budget. This solicitation emphasizes collaboration, constructability, budget/schedule management, and meaningful participation by Small Local Business Enterprise (SLBE) firms. Macon-Bibb County (the "Owner") intends to construct a new, modern civic arena to replace the existing Macon Coliseum. This state-of-the-art multipurpose facility will serve as a cornerstone of the County's cultural, recreational, and economic development, delivering a premium fan experience while accommodating a wide variety of sports and entertainment programming. The new arena will be located at 200 Coliseum Drive, Macon, Georgia 31217, on the current Macon Coliseum site. Construction will occur on the Coliseum's existing surface parking areas, and the project will be phased in such a way as to maintain ongoing operations of the existing facility throughout the duration of construction. The project is anticipated to total more than 200,000 square feet and will feature a manifested bowl seating capacity of approximately 8,500 in an end-stage 180-degree concert configuration, with flexibility to reconfigure for sports and other entertainment events. Premium seating, including luxury suites, club suites, and loge boxes, will be provided in addition to the bowl capacity. The facility will incorporate modern fan amenities such as clubs, concessions, restrooms, and integrated technologies, as well as back-of-house and support spaces appropriate for a state-of-the-art civic arena. An attached structured parking facility with approximately 1,200 spaces, along with additional surface parking and other site improvements, is also included in the scope. The arena site is located within a district experiencing significant public and institutional investment. Mercer University is developing a new medical school campus on the west side of the Ocmulgee River, reinforcing the district's momentum as a center for education, healthcare, and economic growth. Macon-Bibb County has prioritized cultural and recreational enhancements, including the anticipated designation of the Ocmulgee Mounds as a National Park and the ongoing expansion of the Ocmulgee Heritage Trail. The trail, which already spans more than thirteen miles, meanders along both sides of the river and provides access to cultural and recreational landmarks including Spring Street Landing, the Otis Redding Bridge, and the Ocmulgee Mounds via the Walnut Creek Connector. On the west bank, the trail passes through Carolyn Crayton Park, with future plans to extend connectivity to Amerson River Park and the downtown trail network. The recently completed 2nd Street Bridge includes a pedestrian crossing that directly connects the arena site to downtown Macon and the proposed convention center district. While the scope of this RFP is focused on the delivery of the new arena and its immediate site, the selected CMAR will be expected to demonstrate an understanding of these ongoing public investments and coordinate construction planning thoughtfully with surrounding infrastructure. Special attention will be required to address pedestrian and vehicular connectivity, site access, and construction phasing in a manner that integrates harmoniously with adjacent trail, park, and institutional developments. An exhibit map highlighting these publicly known projects and improvements is included as Attachment "A" - Surrounding Development and Connectivity Map. The purpose of this solicitation is to select a Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) to provide comprehensive preconstruction and construction services for the new Macon-Bibb County Arena. The selected firm will work in close collaboration with the Owner and the Design Team to provide cost estimating, scheduling, constructability reviews, and value management during design, and to deliver construction services that ensure the project is completed on schedule, within budget, and at the highest standards of quality and safety. These visits are intended to provide respondents with a better understanding of existing site conditions, surrounding infrastructure, and project context.
