1. INTRODUCTION

1.1. Statement of Procurement Purpose

The State of Tennessee, Department of General Services, State of Tennessee Real Estate Asset

Management (“STREAM”), hereinafter referred to as the “State,” has issued this Request for

Proposals (“RFP”), to define minimum contract requirements; solicit responses; detail response

requirements; and, outline the State’s process for evaluating responses and selecting a Construction

Manager/General Contractor (“CM/GC”), to provide the needed services.

Through this RFP, the State seeks to procure necessary services at the most favorable, competitive

prices and to give ALL qualified businesses, including those that are owned by minorities, women,

Tennessee service-disabled veterans, and small business enterprises, an opportunity to do business

with the State as contractors, subcontractors or suppliers.

1.2. Project Description

The State is seeking to hire a CM/GC who can effectively partner with the State on the expansion and

renovation of the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI) Jackson Building Addition. The facility, the

Special Agent De'Greaun Reshun Frazier Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI) Crime Lab &

Regional Headquarters, is a 46,513 square foot (sf) consolidated facility, located at 350 Smith Lane in

Jackson, TN. The facility provides services to law enforcement agencies in the 21 counties the

Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI) serves in West Tennessee.

The project involves renovation of approximately 2,500 sf, a new addition of approximately 3,500 sf,

and site work to include modification and expansion of the parking lot. New and renovated space

includes an expanded DNA processing laboratory, office space, and site improvements.

Continuous facility operation is essential to ensure TBI can conduct mission essential services.

Therefore, it is imperative that DNA processing laboratory operations are not interrupted for more

than a two-week period. Construction activities and schedules must be well communicated and

coordinated in concert with TBI operations to ensure DNA processing laboratory down-time is kept

to a minimum.

The State intends to secure a contract for CM/GC services. The CM/GC shall provide consulting,

scheduling, and estimating/cost control services during the design phase of the Project, and shall be

the general contractor during construction, holding the trade contracts and providing the

management and construction services during the construction phase. The CM/GC shall

competitively procure and contract with the trade contractors and assume the responsibility and the

risk of construction delivery within the specified cost and schedule terms, after providing a

Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) for the scope(s) of work for the project identified on the RFP

cover page of the Project Specific Documents.

1.3. Current Project Status

The Designer for the project has just completed the program verification phase and the Designer is

anticipated to be given a notice to proceed for the Schematic Design phase when the procurement

of the CM/GC is complete.
