Notice to General Contractors
RFQ Reference #FB-27-001
The University of Arkansas at Little Rock (UA Little Rock), in accordance with the policies and the Board of Trustees, is soliciting proposals from qualified and experienced contractors to provide general contractor management services. The intent of this request is to establish an agreement with a qualified general contractor for the services of demolition, renovations, and site improvements of the project.
The University Plaza property is approximately 22.5 acres located on the south edge of the campus at the corner of University Avenue and Asher Avenue. The project’s goal is to make this property “pad-ready” for an undetermined future development. The scope of work includes demolishing the main University Plaza building, minor asbestos abatement work, and site improvements to the former building pads to create usable green space until future development occurs. It also includes renovations to the existing parking lot and walkways to improve function, safety, and appearance. Before the University Plaza demolition can begin, the first phase of the project will be to accommodate the relocation of the units remaining at the University Plaza property. To accomplish this, significant renovations to the University Services Building are required to create a new Campus Police Headquarters. The phase 1 scope of work includes significant renovations to the 15,000 square-foot University Services Building. Such renovations will include demolition of the attached existing 30,000 square-foot two-story Speech building, exterior improvements, renovation of the interior to create a new Campus Police Headquarters, HVAC system replacement, new lighting, electrical upgrades, and associated work. In addition to these renovations, the 1,867 square-foot Dance Studio Building immediately adjacent to the University Services Building will be demolished. The Dance Studio Building site will be improved to expand the adjacent parking lot to improve parking and traffic for the building occupants.
