Item No. 13-229
Date:. July 8, 2013
Item/Subject: ORDER, Authorizing Award of Contract in the Amount Not to Exceed
$2,000,000 to 7M Brown for the Design/Build BIA Office Complex
Project
Responsible Department: Airport
Commentary: On June 7, 2013, the City received five (5) responses to its request for qualifications
for design/build services to construct an office complex at BIA (i.e. C& L Aerospace). As there the
project is on a tight timeline and the fact that the project needs to meet the goals of not only the
City but the tenant as well, the City opted to employ the design/build process coupled with a request
for qualifications to identify the design/build team that would best meet the City's and tenant's
needs.
A selection committee reviewed all of the submissions. After the initial review, three respondents
were interviewed by the selection committee. All firms interviewed were asked the same questions
and asked to provide the same additional information (i.e. value engineering items, schedule,
breakdown of cost proposal in the format of a schedule of values, and references). All the firms
were capable and experienced in designing and managing construction of similar buildings. After
the interviews were completed the selection committee unanimously recommended that the team of
JM Brown and Ames Associates would best be able to meet the Airport's and tenant's need.
On July 1, 2013, the Finance Committee approved staff recommendation to award the contract to
JM Brown in the amount not to exceed $2,000,000.
The contract award recommendation must be reviewed approved by the City Council as it is over
$100,000.
