Summary

The board voted to advertise for a construction manager‑at‑risk (CMAR) procurement to solicit proposals and encourage local contractors to participate in the athletic complex project.

The Colman‑Egan School District authorized advertising for a construction manager‑at‑risk (CMAR) after staff explained that the CMAR approach can provide local contractors the best opportunity to participate while guaranteeing a maximum price. Staff said the district will advertise for two weeks, accept proposals, and the board may interview or select candidates at its discretion.

Board members said advertising will help gather real‑world cost proposals and allow the district to evaluate maximum guaranteed prices before committing to construction. The vote to advertise passed 3–2.
