HEARING REQUIRED: No Hearing Required
SUMMARY:
The development of Project Titan, which is the MRO campus expansion project at the Pensacola International Airport, will require the services of a Construction Manager At-Risk. During the design phase of each element, the Construction Manager At-Risk will review the plans being developed by the architects/engineers in order to provide cost estimates, initial construction schedules, value engineering services, and ultimately a guaranteed maximum price for the work itself. During actual construction, the firm will be the single point of responsibility for the construction activity.
In May 2019, Staff issued Request for Qualifications No. 19-022 for the necessary services. Seven responses were received. A selection committee made up of Mr. Al Coby, former Pensacola City Manager, Mr. Ted Ent, President and CEO of Innisfree Hotels, and Mr. Ed Carson with Carson Lovell Inc. and Carson Construction reviewed all responses. The review committee met in a public setting on July 26, 2019 to discuss each response, rank the respondents, and shortlist firms for oral presentations. At the conclusion of their discussions, the review committee requested that the top four firms consisting of Brasfield & Gorrie, LLC (partnering with Greenhut Construction Company, Inc.), The Haskell Company (partnering with Hewes & Company, LLC), Hensel Phelps, and Caddell Construction Company, LLC (partnering with Whitesell-Green, Inc.) make oral presentations to the committee.
Oral presentations were given on August 20, 2019. At the conclusion of the presentations, the review committee met in a public setting to discuss each presentation and determined Brasfield & Gorrie, LLC (partnering with Greenhut Construction Company, Inc.) to be the top ranked firm.
Airport Staff and a team of outside consultants have negotiated a proposed contract with Brassfield & Gorrie, LLC for the development of the first additional hangar of the MRO campus expansion project. The contract covers the services to be provided during both the pre-construction phase and construction phase of the hangar and outlines the fees for the Construction Manager At-Risk’s pre-construction services. At the end of design development, the Construction Manager At-Risk will provide the City with a guaranteed maximum price for the construction of the hangar itself. An amendment to the contract will be made at that time to incorporate the costs for construction.
