Description
This Notice of Planned Procurement is issued for informational purposes only and it is subject to change. While The City of Calgary (The City) provides notice of this planned procurement, it cannot guarantee this project will go forward as that is subject to budget and affordability. The plan is to conduct this planned procurement in two stages: 1. Prequalification (RFPQ) and 2. Request for Proposal (RFP) issued to those prequalified. Details regarding when these steps are planned are included below. The RFPQ and RFP will be posted on SAP Ariba Discovery and Alberta Purchasing Connection.
Calgary’s RiverWalk pathway system connects pedestrians and cyclists through the heart of the city and to our beloved Bow River. The time has come to redevelop the next segment, creating a continuous, world-class active modes connection linking Fort Calgary to the west end of downtown. This exciting project, known as RiverWalk West, presents a unique challenge for eligible designers and engineers to develop creative solutions that complete the downtown river promenade.
Through the RiverWalk West Design Competition, The City of Calgary encourages an innovative problem-solving and design excellence approach. As a critical component of the Downtown Revitalization program, this project must address the need for increased pathway use and accommodate adjacent projects in the area. With the 2-stage competition format, participants will first compete in a Request for Prequalification (RFPQ) to become one of up to five (5) shortlisted teams. These shortlisted teams will receive an honorarium to complete a design concept in the Request for Proposal (RFP) stage. The shortlisted concepts will be shared for public input and reviewed by a jury of industry experts to select the winning concept. The winning team will have the opportunity to enter a contract with The City to complete the detailed design and construction administration stages of the project. To be eligible for prequalification, teams must include a member eligible to be registered in Alberta and in good standing with the appropriate regulatory associations (AALA, AAA, APEGA).
Contract duration
The estimated contract period will be 20 month(s), with a proposed start date of 2023/05/01.
