Miscellaneous:
SOQs received will be ranked by a selection committee using a scoring system based on defined criteria. A maximum of three (3) Contractors having the highest ranked SOQs will be required to submit project proposals. The committee will select the final Contractor by evaluating and ranking proposals received from the short-listed Contractors. Pre-construction contract negotiations will ensue with the Contractor having the highest ranked proposal. Pending successful contract negotiations and Billings City Council approval, the Contractor will join the project team consisting of the City of Billings and HDR Engineering.

As CM, the Contractor will work as an integral part of the project team to evaluate and further develop the preliminary design, assisting the Engineer and City in identifying opportunities for improvement and offering alternative solutions. The CM will develop cost estimates and offer suggestions with respect to means, methods, materials innovations and construction sequencing. As GC, the Contractor will provide the necessary resources and subcontractors to implement the team’s design and construct the project. Throughout the entire process, the objective is to maintain a spirit of cooperation and open communication so that project goals and objectives are clearly understood, potential problems are promptly resolved, and upon completion, the project is deemed a success by all.

The Contractor or other key personnel cannot team with other partners to submit more than one SOQ. Only one SOQ per Contractor is acceptable, and City receipt of multiple SOQs from a Contractor will disqualify the Contractor.

Contractors interested in submitting SOQs may contact the City of Billings to receive the SOQ Instructions and any addenda that may be issued. A complete digital SOQ Instructions package is also available at QuestCDN . The SOQ documents may be downloaded at no charge at www.questcdn.com by inputting QuestCDN Project No. 7703095 on the QuestCDN project search page. For any questions contact:
