Summit County Government (“County”) is soliciting responses from qualified firms (Contractor) to provide services for the Summit County Transit Department and hereby invites candidates interested in providing Owner’s Representative, Administrative, Procurement, Compliance, Administration and Project Management (Owner’s Rep) Services to submit a response to this Request for Qualifications (RFQ) in connection with the Swan Meadow Village Bus Stop Building Project in Summit County Colorado.

The County proposes to retain a highly qualified, capable firm(s) to act as the Owner’s Rep responsible for design finalization, contractor solicitation/selection, preconstruction, construction and facility commissioning phases of the project. The candidate will be responsible for finalizing design drawings, submitting and finalizing local regulatory documents/permits, advertising for and selecting contractors, meeting local/state compliance requirements/deadlines and creating/coordinating a complete project phasing plan, schedule and budget to complete the project timely and within budget in accordance with the guidance provided in this RFQ and the resulting contract for services between the Contractor and the County. It is envisioned that a successful Owner’s Rep will include specialization in the areas of architectural/engineering, planning and project management and cost estimating with demonstrated experience in designing and building public transit facilities.

It is envisioned that this facility will provide a loading/unloading area for up to two 40-foot transit vehicles while providing passenger queueing for up to four passengers. The property is intended to be routinely accessed by the public as well as transit routes, a public bus stop and travelers using multiple modes of transportation such as automobiles and bicycles.

The anticipated budget for this building project is between $135,000 and $200,000. The County shall use funds generated by local sales taxes to complete this project as more fully described below. At the time of this RFQ, the Summit County Transit Board has approved this project which will support the goals of the Summit County Commission and the Summit County Transit Board to reduce greenhouse gases and provide quality, dependable, multimodal, mass transit services.
