San Antonio (Bexar County) — SpawGlass, the construction manager on the Texas A&M University-San Antonio Academic and Administration Building project, is inviting all subcontractors and suppliers to attend a non-mandatory pre-proposal conference and community outreach mixer.
The project entails construction of a 58,000-square-foot, mission-style brick and stone façade building. In addition to providing office space for administration staff, the building will have classrooms, art studios, a work shop, and study spaces.
The conference and HUB outreach mixer will take place April 5th, a Friday, beginning at 10 a.m., on the fourth floor (Vista Room #402) of the Central Academic Building.
Subcontractors and suppliers with an interest in bidding on this project are highly encouraged to attend. Send the company RSVP to Melodye Tomsu, the SpawGlass diversity outreach coordinator. Tomsu can be reached by email at Melodye.Tomsu@SpawGlass.com or by phone at 210-651-9000.
SpawGlass plans to issue the Request for Bids on April 3. On that date, the construction documents will be made available through the Virtual Builders Exchange plan room, and at the Selma office of SpawGlass.
Divisions 1 to 33 of the proposal package will be bid as one package. At this time, SpawGlass doesn’t anticipate another bid package.
Price proposals for all bids will be due April 24 by 2 p.m.
PBK Architects Inc. is the project architect.
When the Request for Qualifications was released in January 2018 by Texas A&M, the scope of project stated the building should have 19 classrooms, an art suite, language lab suite and incubator classroom with support space for each academic function, 20 faculty offices with support spaces, a small lobby and general storage.
The building was to be located just south of the existing Central Academic Building on the northeast corner of the future “quad.”
The planned amount for the project was $25 million, with the amount available for construction set at $18,046,000, according to the Architect/Engineer RFQ.
