Construction Management Services for the Unit Ventilator Replacement and HVAC Upgrade Project at Richard D. Hubbard and Mary E. Griswold Elementary Schools

Description

The Town of Berlin Public Building Commission (PBC) is seeking qualifications and cost proposals for construction management services during the replacement of the unit ventilators and ventilation system improvements at Richard D. Hubbard (Hubbard) and Mary E. Griswold (Griswold) Elementary Schools.  The Hubbard Elementary School is located at 139 Grove Street, East Berlin and the Griswold Elementary School is located at 133 Heather Lane, Kensington.  The construction schedule for the Hubbard and Griswold Schools is estimated at 18 months (as attached); these two construction projects will be bid as separate projects, but the bidding and construction will run concurrently.  Project funding includes individual State Grants to each school from the CT Department of Administrative Services.        The Hubbard and Griswold School project will also entail site work, exterior chiller installation, partial ceiling tile replacement along with other associated work related to the ventilation improvements.  The scope of the prime contractor’s work is shown on the construction documents, available for review as outlined below.  The general intent of this request for qualifications/ proposals is to select a firm to assist the PBC in completing the bidding of the Hubbard and Griswold projects, awarding the construction contracts, and to provide oversight during construction at the Hubbard and Griswold Schools, review invoices, prepare Request for Information (RFI’s) and monitor the progress at Hubbard and Griswold with on-site inspection as needed to coincide with the level of effort by the contractor(s).
