through a Competitive Bid Selection

Process administrated and pro-

cessed by the CMAR. Dunseith

Public School Dist. #1 reserves the

right to approve any and all

Sub-Contractors, includes but is not

limited to the following:

1. The number and quality of

Sub-Contractors the CMAR will ob-

tain.

tive working relationship with

ability of the CMAR to complete the

project and coordinate the various

aspects of the work.

3. Demonstrating an ability to fore-

cast local bidding and construction

conditions as it relates to sufficient

work force and costs.

4. Open Book Bidding to be re-

viewed by owner.

g. Fees:

I. Each firm will provide a proposed

fee based on a percentage of the

Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP)

for the construction project.

h. Self-Performance and Bidding:

I. The CMAR will be allowed to

self-perform, without bidding, no

more than 10% of the total of all

construction. 90% of the construc-

tion must be competitively bid

through an advertised bid process.

II. The CMAR may self-perform any

component of the work for the

amount of the lowest bid in-lieu of

accepting bids by Sub-Contractors.

i. Guaranteed Maximum Price:

I. The Guaranteed Maximum Price

(GMP) will be provided to the owner

at the completion of the Construction

Documents. The CMAR will be re-

quired to obtain bids and/or qualify

costs for all work so that the GMO

amendment may be executed after

completion of the Construction Do-

cument Phase.

Development Phase or result in for-

feiture of all design phase fees.

GMP Savings exceed 5% of the

GMP, the CMAR will expand the

scope of the work without additional

fees to include work that was re-

moved or omitted during the design

and estimating phase in order to ob-

tain a GMP that was within the Own-

ers budget.

III. The intent of the restrictions on

GMP Savings is to ensure the Own-

er obtains the broadest and most

complete scope of work possible,

yet still offer the CMAR incentive to

find savings within the project during

the Construction Phase.

k. Bonds and Insurance:

I. Proof of liability to provide a bind

in an amount at least equal to the

amount of the Guaranteed Maximum

Price of the project as well as meet

necessary insurance requirements

bond for their work, which may im-

pact the cost and ability of obtaining

a bond by the CMAR.
