Abstract
In this step we select from the universe of contractors those capable and experienced in the type and scale of work being developed. The goal is to develop a short list of contractors who are qualified to build the project so the competitive bidding can be clearly confined to price. See Step 10 for a detailed discussion of setting up a system to qualify and recruit contractors.
It is assumed that the Construction Specialist will be the “owner’s representative” on the construction job for the life of the project. Therefore, it is critical that the Construction Specialist has the lead responsibility for selecting the contractor for the project, obviously with consultation and consensus from the Development Team.
