BACKGROUND : At its Business meeting on December 2 , 2024 , the Board of Commissioners
authorized the use of the Construction Manager- at- Risk project delivery method for the Crisis
Diversion Facility and for the County to issue a Request for Qualifications ( RFQ ) to select a firm
to provide those services .
Orange County issued RFQ 367- 005447 for the selection of a firm to be the Construction
Manager at Risk (" CMAR") for the Crisis Diversion Facility on January 7 , 2025 . A total of eight ( 8 )
firms responded , and three ( 3 ) firms were selected to be interviewed by an Evaluation Committee
that included Travis Myren , County Manager; Caitlin Fenhagen , Deputy County Manager ; Alan
Dorman , Director of Asset Management Services ; and Tony Marimpietri , Chair of the Crisis
Diversion Facility Subcommittee of the Behavioral Health Task Force . Interviews were held on
March 6 and March 10 , 2025 .
The Evaluation Committee has selected Gilbane Building Company . Gilbane ' s extensive
experience in delivering behavioral health and crisis diversion facilities , combined with its
commitment to community impact , makes it the ideal partner for this project . The company ' s
expertise in cost- effective preconstruction services , innovative value engineering , and a proven
track record in managing complex healthcare projects ensures that Orange County will receive a
high -quality , efficient , and timely facility that meets the needs of the community .
The contract with Gilbane includes pre -construction services for $ 179 , 928 , and includes
construction cost estimates , a review of project design and schedule , and other related services .
Once the final design is completed , Gilbane will establish a pre-qualification process for
contractors who wish to bid on the project and then accept bids from those firms . The final
returned bids will be the basis for the Guaranteed Maximum Price (" GMP ") for the facility 's
construction unless the County requires additional changes in the facility .
The CMAR fees for the project are shown in the table below ( Gilbane ' s proposal is provided at
Attachment 2 ) . The fees will be based on the GMP which the Board will adopt once the bidding
has been completed .
