The Colorado School for the Deaf and the Blind (CSDB) is interested in designing and constructing a universally inclusive, ADA compliant playground approximately 10,000 square feet to replace an existing playground approximately 4,600 square feet. This playground will be the main playground for the campus and will serve deaf/hard hearing, blind/visually impaired and handicap children in grades K-12. CSDB wants the playground to be installed and completed by August 9th, 2024
The playground location and site-specific plan are in Appendix D - Aesthetic Guidelines and Construction Standards.
This project will be completed using the Design/Build Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) project delivery method. The project budget is $1,954,154.
The Department of Education / Colorado School for the Deaf and the Blind intends to select a Design/Build Entity who will design, manage and construct the project as described within. The process to be used in the selection of the firm is comprised of two steps:
STEP I is the Submittal of Prequalification as described in Section II.
STEP II is the Oral Interview/Cost Proposal as described in detail in Section III.
A Jury Panel of individuals who will be involved in the project and/or understand the required services associated with Design/Build Contracting will evaluate responses to this RFP for both STEPS.
Upon completion of the evaluation of the Submittals of Prequalification, a limited number of teams will be invited to the oral interviews. It is anticipated no fewer than three (3) or no more than five (5) will be interviewed.
Sealed cost proposals will be required only from those teams who are interviewed and are to be submitted as indicated in this RFP. Both qualifications and cost will be considered in the final ranking of teams with qualifications given 70% of the value of the weighted criteria and costs in the sealed Cost Proposal given 30
