Choose a Delivery Method:

Collaborative-Design-Build

This delivery method is a hybrid of the CMAR and DB. In the Phase 1 agreement, the owner and Design-Builder collaborate to develop a set of Design-Build documents and a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) based on those documents and a Phase 2 Design-Build agreement as a product of the scope and GMP developed in Phase 1.

Construction Manager At Risk

This delivery method requires a construction manager (CM) to provide preconstruction services (Phase 1) for the design and a separate construction contract (Phase 2) to deliver the project. The design team develops the construction documents with the information provided by the owner and the CM at Phase 1. The CM commits to a Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) developed throughout Phase 1.

Design-Bid-Build

This is the traditional method of project delivery. It involves three phases: a linear design, bidding and construction. Construction documents are developed first by a design entity. Documents are competitively bid and the project is awardd to the contractor with the lowest price who is qualified, responsive and responsible.

Design-Build

For this delivery method, the owner awards a single agreement for design and construction after selecting a project solution through a best value project competition.

TOCA Collaborative Design-Build

This construction contract procurement method is used for performing multiple projects as individual tasks under a single master enabling agreement. Each task can be executed as either a Construction Manager at Risk (CM TOCA) or a Collaborative Design-Build (CDB TOCA) delivery method.

TOCA Construction Manager at Risk

This delivery method is used for performing multiple projects as individual tasks under a single master enabling agreement (MEA). Each task can be executed as either a Construction Manager at Risk (CM TOCA) or a Collaborative Design-Build (CDB TOCA) delivery.

Job Order Contracts

This construction procurement uses an annual contract with a prequalified contractor to accomplish minor capital outlay maintenance, repair or improvement projects by utilizing a construction task catalog for pricing. Design services are typically separate from the JOC contract.

Document Communication

Description:

After execution of service agreement with the design professional(s), all relevant information related to the project needs to be provided to the design team. Such information may include CSU and campus standards, guidelines, and project specific information such as feasibility documents, bases of design reports, CEQA documents, hazardous material reports, geotechnical engineering reports, surveys, owner projects requirements, bridging documents, campus developed schedule, and owner consultant developed documents shall be organized and packaged and made available for proposers review.

It shall be the responsibility of the CM in collaboration with the Architect to access the type, quantity, and quality of the available information describing existing site conditions.
