Seeking Partners on Maryland Master Plan Project
I am assembling a team for the preparation of a Facilities Master Plan for the University of Maryland. I am a civil engineer and LEED AP with extensive construction experience as well as AutoCAD skills. I will need at least a landscape architect as well as a transportation expert. Please view the excerpts below of the entire RFP.
Each Proposing Team shall be led by a Landscape Architect and shall include a
nationally recognized multi-modal transportation expert. The Team should also include
expertise on cultural university landscapes; environmental ecosystems, restoration and
sustainability, and other areas as necessary to complete the elements contained in this
scope of work.The primary purpose of the Facilities Master Plan is to establish a framework to guide
the orderly growth and development of the campus. This update, the 2011-2030
Facilities Master Plan (FMP) shall be consistent with the University’s mission,
Strategic Plan, and the President’s Climate Action Plan. The FMP is intended to be a
working document sufficiently flexible to accommodate the unexpected changes that
will occur in a dynamic environment during the next 10 years.
Please contact me at john@constructonomics.com if interested. Thank you.








My company has been working with the residential FM & and campus FM departments for the past seven years. We have been scanning the existing construction documents and putting them into an organized digital format. We have also illustrated to the FM departments how we can take the campus documents and create a smart campus map, that when the curser is palced on a building, with one click, the related documents appear in a searchable PDF format. We have presented to the construction and design department our project document management services that captures and archives all high content project information through out the entire lifecycle of the project (Pre-Con to project close out and back-up storage. All of the support staff gave high markes to our services but the department head said that they were to busy to explore our service.
Our document management service can be deployed within 24 hours of receiving the information to be published on our dash board in easy to use PDF format.
I would be very interested in working with you as new document management processes evolve i.e. BIM (Building Information Management & IPD (Intergrated Project Delivery)
I am sure that we can contribute to substantial savings in time and dollars spent.
Sincerly,
