Description
This solicitation calls for a Construction Manager‑at‑Risk (CMAR) to oversee the design‑assist, pre‑construction, and construction phases of GoTriangle’s Bus Operations & Maintenance Facility (BOMF) modernization and expansion in Durham, NC. The CMAR will act as the prime contractor, delivering a guaranteed maximum price (GMP), maintaining uninterrupted bus operations during construction, and integrating multiple infrastructure upgrades including parking expansion, new service lanes, solar PV shade structures, security fencing, and battery‑electric‑bus charging stations. The award will be based on qualifications—not price—using a qualifications‑based selection process, and the selected vendor (Balfour Beatty, Inc.) will enter negotiations to finalize the GMP and contract terms. Federal funding imposes Buy‑America, Davis‑Bacon, DBE participation, and other compliance requirements. Key responsibilities include phased construction planning, utility coordination, schedule and cost control, safety management, and commissioning.

• Execute construction while maintaining continuous facility operations and delivering phased work (parking, service lanes, EV charging, solar PV).
• Comply with extensive federal requirements (Buy‑America, Davis‑Bacon, DBE, environmental, safety).
