P1123 General Contractor for Fire Station Expansion
and Renovation Projects
PROJECT REQUIREMENTS
A formal Partnering Session will be held with the selected contractor, PFA team members and
Belford-Watkins Architects as soon as the selection process is completed.
During the design phase(s), the contractor will be part of the design team with PFA and Belford-
Watkins Architects, participating in the final design effort by assisting in the following areas:
Review of designs for constructability
Estimating costs of different alternatives and components
Providing opinions and recommendations on suitable methods and approaches to
accomplishing the work
Offer value engineering suggestions to accomplish the desired objectives in the most
cost-effective manner possible.
Provide on-going cost status of the project to the design team as the project proceeds.
The contractor is required to commit key staff members to assist the project team by attending
regularly scheduled project meetings and preparing information or responses to issues in
advance of meetings. Normally, attendance will be required by the contractor’s project manager
and superintendent. In the event key technical functions are subcontracted, the subcontractor
shall assist the general contractor firm in fulfilling its responsibilities under the agreement during
the design phase(s), including participation in design discussions.
The PFA staff works very closely with the Architect/Engineer (Belford-Watkins Architects) and
the contractor on a day to day basis as part of a tem during design and construction of projects.
Traditional adversarial roles are not an acceptable way of doing business. You are encouraged
to call or visit to discuss further or to ask any questions that you have about the process.
The Poudre Fire Authority utilizes the services of a general contractor on an as needed basis.
The type and complexity of the work varies, dependent upon the specific needs of he PFA at
any given time. Several projects including a facilities warehouse structure, additional fire
stations, significant remodels and additions to existing fire stations, and the replacement of the
burn building are all possible during the terms of any agreement.
Currently some of these projects have approval.
Prototype Fire Stations (Stations 12 & 14) -- ~10,500 sq foot fire stations with living
quarters, apparatus bays, community rooms, offices and support areas, typically located
1 to 1.5 acre sites. 2 of these facilities completed in last 6 years.
STD WO SA WO rev06/07 14
Training Center Facilities -- 20,000 sq. ft. storage, warehouse and office facility for
training staff.
Live Fire Training building – Significant repairs to this structure to extend its useful life.
Flag Poles – The installation of Flag Poles at several facilities.
The list of projects is not exhaustive of the projects completed under the current agreement and
is no guarantee of similar projects in the future. Most of these projects were completed using a
team approach with the Authorities design firm, however some projects were strictly design build
by the contractor and others a combination of design build and design team approaches.
The selected contractor may be retained for multiple phases of the work over the next five (5)
years. The City of Fort Collins may utilize the selected contract for similar projects required in
the next five (5) years, but not specifically listed.
