The awarded CMAR firm will function as a General Contractor responsible for publicly bidding trade contracts, all scheduling and coordination of the project, and the successful, timely, and economical completion of the assigned project. The awarded CMAR firm will provide preconstruction and construction services and will be responsible for constructing the project pursuant to a contractually guaranteed maximum price. Not all projects will require construction services, but may only include pre-construction services, including estimating.
Eligible projects under this solicitation include any new construction, renovations or remodeling of Village facilities, and Parks, including fields, where the total price of the project does not exceed $2 million (pursuant to FS 287.055, 255.103).
