The "Construction Manager At-Risk (CM At-Risk`) project delivery method is being utilized on the project. � Typically. the CM At-Risk method provides improved cost control. better allocates risk. and enhances project col aboration. On January 10. 2006. the Board approved a consulting services agreement with Swinerton Bui tiers CSwinerton') to provide construction management services for the project. With the CM At-Risk project delivery method. numerous trade scopes of work were developed (e.g.. earthwork. concrete. site utilities. framing. mechanical. and electrical) and incorporated into the bid documents. The project plans and specifications were previously filed with and approved by the Board of Supervisors, and bids .were duly invited from the various trades involved in the project. Bids for the subject trade :were received and opened by the County Capital Projects Management Division on September 14. 2006. However. the bids were rejected and the work was re-bid. Bids were received again on November 9. 2006 and the results are as i follows: TRADE CO\TRaCT SCOPE OF Bidder Bid Amount Award R-ORK (Summar- Description) Amount 08125, 08411. 08.313. 08800 - Aluminum Frames.
