Board approves use of CMAR delivery method for multiple 2026 bond projects
Summary
Trustees approved using the Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) two-step selection process for several 2026 bond-funded construction projects, authorizing administration to proceed with procurement and final contract award subject to board approval.
The Victoria ISD Board authorized district administration to use the Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) two-step selection method for multiple projects funded by the 2026 bond program, including expansions and modernization work at several elementary and secondary campuses.
Administration explained the CMAR method provides a guaranteed maximum price and is the process the district used on prior projects. "So, what we're bringing forward is approval for the CMAR delivery method," a staff presenter said. Trustee Ms. Pruitt moved to find CMAR provides best value for the listed 2026 bond projects and to authorize the superintendent or designee to proceed with procurement; Ms. Marshall seconded the motion. The board voted in favor, 7–0.
Staff said the district may hire a single CMAR or multiple CMARs depending on the architectural teams and project scope and that award of final contracts will return to the board for approval.
