Specifications include, but are not limited to: The Authority wishes to engage a Designer to design a facility as well as plan the overall rental car campus with consideration given to forecasted demand and fleet mix for rental cars, optimization of automobile access from existing or proposed roadways, and safe and efficient pedestrian access from the terminal. Consideration should be given to utilizing existing Quick Turnaround (QTA) facilities if they can be incorporated into an efficient comprehensive campus plan. Key goals of the engagement include siting, planning, programing, and designing a rental-car-only parking deck or a combined public parking and rental car parking deck and providing a recommendation of the most cost-effective project delivery method. The parking deck will likely contain a lobby and rental car counter space so the rental car operators can optimize operational efficiency with a “one-stop” experience for rental car customers. The Authority’s goal is to design a facility that has maximum flexibility for changes in use and possible future expansion as needs change over time. The scope may also include designing or working with another design team selected by the Authority to design a shell connection building between the existing terminal and the new CONRAC facility in order to accommodate future baggage claim and additional lobby space.
