The New Jersey Schools Development Authority (“NJSDA”) is seeking the services of a Construction Manager ("CM") to manage

the design-build construction of a new Middle School in the West New York Public School District.

The Request for Qualifications/Request for Proposals (“RFQ/RFP”) defines the steps needed for participation in the

procurement, and is issued pursuant to the NJSDA's regulations governing the procurement of professional services

consultants, N.J.A.C. 19:38C-1 et seq.

The RFQ/RFP package is available at the following link: click here to view RFQ/RFP.

Brief Description of Work:

Construction Management Services for a new Middle School in West New York, NJ. The project is planned to be an

approximately 161,730 square foot facility designed to educate 876 students in grades Six through Eight.

Procurement Overview:

This is a "Price and Other Factors" solicitation for Construction Management Services. This solicitation seeks responses from

interested firms in the form of a simultaneous submission of:

1. A Qualifications and Technical Proposal, which provides information regarding the firm’s past experience and

qualifications for evaluation by a Selection Committee charged with evaluation and scoring of the submittals with

reference to the non-price "Other Factors" criteria identified in the RFQ/RFP. The "Other Factors" to be

considered, and their relative weights, are as follows:

• Responsive Firm's CM Experience on Comparable Projects (40 Points)

• Key Team Members' Experience on Comparable Projects (60 points)

2. A sealed Price Proposal, which will remain sealed until completion of the "Other Factors" evaluation and scoring,

and which states the firm’s Total Compensation Amount price for the services required for the project. The Price

Proposal will be subject to scoring in accordance with the terms of the RFQ/RFP.

Responsive firms will be evaluated and scored by a Selection Committee on the basis of their written Qualifications and

Technical Proposal submissions. The responsive firms will be ranked on the basis of such scores, and a shortlist of the six (6)

most highly-ranked firms will be determined. The shortlisted firms will participate in interviews with the Selection Committee

and will be separately scored on the basis of the interview using the same criteria and point values used to evaluate the

Qualifications and Technical Proposal. The scores for the written submission and the interview will be combined into a total

"Non-Price Score."

Once all the Non-Price Scores for all shortlisted firms have been calculated, the Authority will open the sealed Price Proposals

and will review them for responsiveness, and determine a Price Score for each responsive Price Proposal. The lowest responsive

Price Proposal shall be scored by awarding the maximum number of points for the price component, which shall be 100. All

other Price Proposals shall be scored by awarding points based on the percentage that each proposal exceeds the lowest Price

Proposal.

The Non-Price Scores will be adjusted by a weighting factor of 60% and the Price Scores will be adjusted by a weighting factor

of 40%, before being combined in a Final Combined Score. The Authority will recommend award of the contract to the

responsive firm with the highest Final Combined Score.

Management and Construction (“DPMC”) and the NJSDA in the Construction Management (P029) discipline as of the due date

In accordance with N.J.S.A. 18A:7G-41.1, a firm shall be precluded from submitting a proposal for this procurement if such firm

or any affiliated firm is engaged under a prime contract with NJSDA to provide work and services as the general contractor for

this project, or is engaged as a subcontractor to the general contractor for this project.

No firm may propose as a Key Team Member any person who has assisted the Authority by materially participating in the

preparation of an RFQ/RFP for this Construction Management Services procurement or for the Design-Build Services

or RFQ/RFP themselves, as well as the preparation of plans, specifications, reports or other documents that are produced with

the intent to be incorporated into a Project Manual or Design-Build Information Package that is part of that RFP or RFQ/RFP.

rejection of the entire proposal that includes the ineligible person.
