The government authority in Bismarck, North Dakota seeks a vendor to provide construction management at risk services for upcoming projects. The selected firm will be responsible for developing detailed cost estimates at each project phase, based on architectural and engineering design documents, and tracking those estimates against the owner's budgets. Comprehensive reporting must be provided to both the owner and the architect.

The vendor will also offer constructability recommendations and input throughout design phases, ensuring that design decisions align with project feasibility and budget considerations. Participation in design team meetings with the owner, architect, and consultants is required to provide expert guidance and support.

A key responsibility includes developing and maintaining a construction schedule during both the design and construction phases. The vendor will provide schedule recommendations reflective of project scope, design decisions, and the current market availability and lead times for trade contractors and critical items.
