The Dormitory Authority of the State of New York (“DASNY”) seeks proposals from Construction Managers to provide professional construction management services during construction phases of the project for SUNY New Paltz, Capen Hall, using a Construction Manager-Build (“CM-Build”) project delivery method. The project is located at 1 Hawk Dr, New Paltz, New York 12561 (the “Project”).

A CM-Build project delivery method is similar to a Construction Manager-at-Risk project delivery method, in that the Construction Manager is involved during the design phase of the project, procures the construction phase trade contracts, and manages the construction phase of the project. However, in a CM-Build delivery method, a Guaranteed Maximum Price is not provided prior to bidding the trade packages, rather a Maximum Contract Price (“MCP”) is established after the Construction Manager procures the trade packages. The CM-Build Contractor is a Construction Manager who will contract with DASNY to submit an MCP. 

The project scope of work generally includes, but is not limited to asbestos abatement, selective demolition, concrete, masonry, metals, interior finishes, openings, roofing, finishes, specialties, furnishings, roofing, fire suppression, plumbing, mechanical, electrical, communication, fire alarm, sitework, and exterior improvements. Project shall include, selective demolition, asbestos-containing material removal and hazardous waste removal, including removal of ceiling plaster and of built-in wardrobes as ACM.  Installation of building-wide fire protection system, construction of soffits and new finishes as required by removals.

In addition, the demolition and reconfiguration of the existing bathrooms of Capen Hall shall include new partitions, doors and hardware, finishes, fixtures, and toilet accessories. The scope of work also includes the reconfiguration of the sprinkler system into the bathrooms and replacement of the existing exhaust system with roof mounted Energy Recovery Ventilator system including supply and return ductwork.

The demolition and reconstruction of existing bathrooms shall include finishes and fixtures, domestic risers and distribution and sanitary risers, lighting, power, and fire alarm systems. Upgrades to existing hydronic piping, valves, and pumps are also included. 

In addition, the scope of work includes the renovation of offices, conference room, and resident director apartment and office. Reconfiguration and new finishes for the first-floor business suite in the south wing with a new exterior entrance.

Finishes shall include, but not limited to, resilient flooring and painting including tile, carpet and signage.  Electrical and fire alarm work as required by removals. Removal of existing bedroom doors and frames. Installation of doors and frames, including a new hard wired card access system.

Interested Proposers should review Section 2.2- Qualification and Certification Requirements of the RFP to determine eligibility.
