Description

Summary
The Calgary Homeless Foundation (CHF) and Calgary Community Land Trust Society (CCLT) are currently undertaking the new development of purpose built permanent housing with integrated supports for individuals exiting homelessness in support of the goals of Calgary’s Updated Plan to End Homelessness (The Plan). For more information on The Plan, visit www.http://www.ihearthomeyyc.com/the-plan/

CHF and CCLT have an approved development permit for a 23 unit wood frame development in South Calgary/Marda Loop. This development is a four storey wood frame building to be constructed on a 6,000 ft2 (50ft x 120ft) residential lot at 1714 27 Avenue SW. The building permit for this project is currently underway. Attached are the plans that were submitted as part of the development permit application. This is the fifth development by CHF and CCLT. Construction budgets for these projects are ranging between $3 – 3.6 million.

These buildings are made possible through the RESOLVE Campaign and the Government of Alberta to provide affordable housing for Calgarians experiencing homelessness. More information about this partnership can be found here: http://calgaryhomeless.com/what-we-do/own-housing/new-projects/

Services Required

The Construction Manager will perform the following services in each of the three phases described below as well as establishing and implementing appropriate administrative and financial controls for construction of the Project:

PRE-CONSTRUCTION PHASE
Consultation During Project Development:
- Attend regular meetings with the Construction Management Team during the development of final design and preparation of final drawings to advise on site use and improvements, selection of materials, building systems and equipment. Provide recommendations on availability of materials and labour, time requirements for installation and construction, and factors related to cost including costs of alternative designs or materials, preliminary budgets, and possible economies;
- Acquaint the Owner and other members of the Construction Management Team with the labour conditions applicable for the duration of the Project;
- Assist in providing liaison and co-ordination among government authorities, utility companies, and other authorities having jurisdiction over the Place of the Project.

Planning and Scheduling:
- Prepare, for the Owners review, a preliminary time schedule (“Time Schedule”), following consultation with the Construction Management Team, incorporating the sequence and timing of the required basic program decisions, including design time, documentation, bid calls, bid evaluations, trade contract awards and on-site construction activities;
- Monitor and, if required, with mutual approval with the Owner revise and update the preliminary Time Schedule as the design proceeds;
- Finalize the Time Schedule for the Owner's approval, and, if necessary, estimate the manpower requirements. Break down this schedule into individual components for each phase of the Project where necessary showing the sequence and timing for the main construction operations and the milestone completion dates for the various phases;

Project Construction Budget:
- Prepare a Project Construction Budget as soon as major Project requirements have been identified, and update continually for the Owner's approval;
