Description
The Town of Penhold is a young, fast-growing, family orientated community of approximately 4,000 residents that welcomes innovation and enterprise while honouring the past - challenging the future.
A welcoming and vibrant community nestled between highway 2 and highway 2A, Penhold offers visitors and residents a small-town warmth just minutes from the city.
The current Public Works Operations facility is located at 910 Fleming Avenue and the current Firehall is located at 1001 Minto Street. Both facilities have served the community for more than 50 years, have reached their useful life and are not suitable for retrofit.
With the procurement of land along Waskasoo Avenue North the Town of Penhold has completed site assessments including geotechnical and floodway, stripped land and brought in engineered fill for the purpose of constructing a combined Public Works Operations and Firehall facility which:
• Combines parts of both services to eliminate duplication of facilities (such as break rooms and office space).
• Holds the purpose of serving the community for a lifespan of 50 years.
• Fulfils the size requirements for the needed capacity (material and fleet) and operations inside the building.
• Improve operational performance and service levels by promoting departmental collaboration and reducing management facility costs. Embracing modern building materials and techniques allows the Town to benefit from reduced facility costs over an extended period of time.
• Offers the best value and practical solution for the requested requirements.
The Owner wishes to highlight that this project is NOT schedule driven. Proponents are strongly encouraged to leverage the Owner's schedule flexibility to the extent it reduces capital costs or increases value.
Using the Design-Build procurement method, the Town of Penhold intends to build a new Public Services Facility integrating the Firehall and Public Works Operations into one building. This Request for Proposal (RFP) solicits submissions from qualified Design-Build Proponents. The intent of the Town of Penhold is to award a contract for the design and construction of said building to the most qualified Proponent as defined by their submission in response to this solicitation and evaluated in accordance with the criteria and process outlined in this RFP.
The scope of this Contract is comprised of the design and construction of a Public Services Building to house the Penhold Public Works Operations and the Penhold Fire Department, and to include a sand/salt storage facility on site, and a cold storage solution for out of season equipment for the Town of Penhold (the Owner) using a Design-Build project delivery methodology. The Owner's Operations Division, comprised of Utilities, Roads, Fleet Services, and Parks departments, as well as the Fire Department is housed in facilities that are at the end of their useful life and are not suitable for reinvestment. As such, the Owner has selected a new greenfield site to house the new Public Services Facility. The Town would like to construct three (3) new facilities on the new site, one (1) to house the general operations of Public Works including warm storage of parts and equipment, maintenance of said equipment, as well as storage and operations of the Fire Department equipment, using shared spaces for officing, meeting spaces, and break spaces, one (1) to house the Sand Salt mixture (i.e. pickled-sand) and one (1) to serve as a cold storage building (i.e. unheated structure) to store seasonal equipment, materials, and supplies.
Contract duration
The estimated contract period will be 14 month(s), with a proposed start date of 2024/10/10.
