The State of California, acting through the Board of Trustees of the California State University, hereinafter called Trustees, on behalf of California State University, Dominguez Hills, hereinafter called University, is requesting Statements of Qualifications (SOQ) from interested and qualified General Contractors (Respondents) to provide Design Build and Construction Manager services with lump sum pricing for the design and construction of multiple projects under a master enabling agreement (MEA). The delivery method for this contract is Task Order-Construction Agreement for Multiple Projects—Master Enabling Agreement (TO-CA MEA). The TO-CA MEA will include two types of agreements for the multiple projects: a single task order for the design and preconstruction phase services for the anticipated group of projects, and individual project construction agreements for the construction phase. During the design and preconstruction phase and under a Trustees-issued task order, the selected Respondent will collaborate with the Trustees on the design, constructability, cost, and schedule of the Project and develop a Lump Sum proposal to construct the Project. Upon the Trustees’ acceptance of the Lump Sum, the Trustees will issue a Construction Agreement to the General Contractor for the construction phase. If the Trustees and the General Contractor do not agree upon a Lump Sum, the Trustees will not award the construction phase of a Project to the General Contractor.
