The Pawnee Nation of Oklahoma is requesting proposals for furnishing Construction Management Services in connection with the construction of the new Pawnee Health Center to be constructed at Pawnee, Oklahoma. The new facility is to be approximately 6268 gross square meters. The total estimated cost exceeds $10 million dollars. The Construction Manager will consult with the Architect/Engineer firm and the Pawnee Nation staff during the design phases to provide cost estimating and to assure that the project will be well designed and constructed in an efficient and economical manner within budgetary limitations. It is anticipated that an early site development bid package will be required. Prior to completion of the design the Construction Manager (CM) will be required to submit a Guaranteed Maximum Price (G.M.P.) for the construction of the facility. The Construction Manager will be required to render supervisory and managerial services during construction, for which he will be paid a fee over and above the price covering the actual construction work. A Performance Bond (100%) and Payment Bond (40%)(not to exceed $2.5 million dollars)will be required of the CM prior to execution of the G.M.P. Contract. This requirement will be procured using Source Selection procedures. Consideration for selection will be based on assessment of prior experience and qualifications using the following evaluation criteria which is listed in descending order of importance with items 1 & 2 being of equal value: (1) Construction Management Experience, i.e., of the description used in the proposed contract; (2) Construction experience in the last five years on projects of similar size and scope to this project, i.e., health centers, hospitals, and other health facilities; (3) Experience of Construction Manager's professional staff; (4) Cost Management and Critical Path scheduling experience; (5) Construction Contracting experience with Indian Organizations; (6) Management Plan; (7) Price. Offerors are advised that technical quality is more important than price. The Solicitation is expected to be available on or about May 8, 2001. Request for solicitation package must be made in writing to Robert Chapman, President, Pawnee Nation of Oklahoma, P. O. Box 470, Pawnee, Oklahoma 74058.

L. 93-638 and implementing regulations. An Indian Owned Firm is one which is at least 51% Indian Owned and Controlled and has submitted with its offer a completed and current Representation Declaration (B.I.A. Self-certification) Form.
