Minor Works Panel: Project Management Services

We are seeking proposals from experienced project management consultants to provide project management services including management of project scope, risks and issues, finances and forecasting and management of the design, procurement and construction processes including contract management and project close-out.

We are looking to establish a panel of two to four External Project Management consultants to provide comprehensive external project management services for minor construction project works, valued at less than $2,500,000 for Property and Campus Development Division. Services include management of project scope, risks and issues, finances and forecasting and management of design, procurement and construction processes including contract management and project close-out.

The key objective of this RFP is to establish a panel of external project management companies that:
* Fosters a partnership model with the University and its suppliers,
* Improves the University’s ability to progress minor project works,
* Allows for easier procurement and less administrative burden,
* Allows for more open and transparent communications between suppliers and the university.
* In turn this will result in more minor works projects starting and completing in a timely manner.
