I attended a mandatory pre-bid meeting for a new elementary school in the Kennett Square School District.\u00a0 The project is broken down into 10 subcontracts.\u00a0 I am looking to partner on the general contract portion which will likely be about $5 million.\u00a0 I do not have the bonding capacity to perform this work, but I would like to supplement the team with pre-con and PM services.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I am willing to perform estimating and pre-con services at no-cost in exchange for being used as a PM or APM on the project.\u00a0 My PM fee will also be less than what is typically paid to PMs.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The partnering contractor must have the following qualifications:<\/p>\n
-5 years experience in public school construction<\/p>\n
-2 school construction projects of $5 million or more for just GC portion OR $15 million for single combined contract.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Public bidding has been very competitive lately, and the winning bidder will certainly have strong relationships with local subs that are willing to work on low profit margins.\u00a0 Like I said, I can help a team provide a lower cost with free pre-con work and low PM fees.\u00a0<\/p>\n
