REQUEST FOR QUALIFICATIONS
The City of Phoenix is seeking a qualified contractor to provide preconstruction services and
complete construction services for the Phoenix Municipal Court Sanitary Sewer, Vent, and
Storm Drain Piping System Replacement Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) project. There
will be replacement of approximately 9,970 linear feet of cast iron sanitary waste and vent
piping, and approximately 465 linear feet of storm pipe. The selected CMAR will work as a team
with the designer of record and City staff to ensure an efficient design approach for the project.
Phoenix Municipal Court is located at 300 W. Washington Street. The estimated construction
cost is $11.5 million.
SECTION I - PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Phoenix Municipal Court building is a nine-floor building that was constructed in 1999 and is
comprised of a basement, nine stories of office and court room space, and a rooftop equipment
penthouse. This is a high security facility with daily court sessions that will need to maintain
operations throughout the duration of the pipe replacement project. All areas of the building are
considered highly secure and must be maintained as such.
There will be approximately 9,970 linear feet of cast iron sanitary waste and vent piping and
approximately 465 liner feet of storm piping. Portions of the sanitary waste, vent and storm
piping systems are showing signs of deterioration, rust, internal build up and corrosion. It was
observed that portions of the existing sanitary and storm piping do not have the required slope
per code. Internal scoping of the existing sanitary waste and storm piping observed areas where
standing water was present. The internal scoping also observed many areas within the sanitary
waste piping showing internal buildup of grease and internal corrosion. The failure and
corrosion areas that have been identified are located throughout the building and do not appear
to be localized in one area of the piping system. To replace the sanitary waste system, shaft
walls and plumbing chases will need to be opened by removing drywall to gain access to some
of the piping.
The storm drain piping appears to be in good condition. There are areas where corrosion has
been identified and it is recommended to replace those sections of piping. There are many
areas of the horizontal storm drain piping that are not sloped correctly. These areas can be
seen in the internal videos that were taken of the storm drainage system. It is estimated an
additional 35% of the storm drain piping needs to re-sloped in order for the system to drain
correctly and avoid standing water in the pipe which will continue to corrode the interior of the
piping over time. Drain lines from all drinking fountains, break room sinks and floor drains will
be replaced as part of this project. Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride (CPVC) piping shall be used
for pipe replacement.
Restrooms will be renovated as part of the scope of work. Toilets, urinals, faucets, and soap
dispensers shall all be replaced with Energy Star rated items and low flow, touchless equipment
that match existing City standards. Existing restroom stalls, partitions, accessories, paper towel
dispensers and new countertops may need to be replaced in order to ensure all components are
within ADA compliance. ADA must be strictly adhered to as part of this project.
Work is to occur after normal business hours and over weekends and is to be scheduled in
preapproved and controlled phases so as not to hinder daily court operations. Court Security
will be required (two per shift) in pre-determined areas to ensure compliance with safety
protocols. Security shall be provided by the Owner.
