Body
Background Information:
A Request for Qualifications (RFQ) to comply with the Consultants Competitive Negotiation Act (CCNA), per Florida Statute 287.055, was released on April 5, 2024, with submission of proposal on May 24, 2024; the negotiation and scoping process concluded in November 2024.
The contract includes fully burdened hourly rates that include all labor, direct/indirect overhead margins/profits, and travel within the Tampa Bay Metropolitan Statistical Area (TBMSA). Travel outside of the TBMCSA will be reimbursed in accordance with Florida Statutes.
The St. Pete-Clearwater International Airport (PIE) is located on the west shoreline of Old Tampa Bay in Pinellas County, Florida. This county-owned and operated airport was originally built during World War II as a United States Army Air Base. After the war, the property was returned to Pinellas County to operate as a civil airport.
The original terminal building was dedicated in 1957. Since that time, various building expansions and renovations have been made to the facility. The most recent building improvements have been to the Federal Inspection Services area, Gates 7-11 passenger security screening and hold room area, and the Ticketing “A” check-in and baggage screening and make-up areas.
Since 2013, the airport has experienced double-digit growth in total passenger traffic annually, increasing from 1,017,049 passengers in 2013 to 2,366,029 in 2022. This represents an increase of one hundred and thirty-three percent (133%) over nine years.
In the spring of 2021, the airport completed its Master Plan Study. This long-awaited study provided an assessment of the existing conditions of the facility, and a recommended path forward for the expansion of the terminal building (and associated apron) to meet the needs and demands for the present and future conditions.
In July 2024, airport staff and the selected design team (C&S Engineers) had a design kick-off meeting to begin developing conceptual designs for the new terminal expansion. Manhattan Construction Company LLC is selected as the top ranked firm for the Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) for this project. Manhattan is expected to join the design effort during Schematic Design in early 2025 following award of this contract.
Anticipated commencement of construction for this project is summer of 2026.
Fiscal Impact:
Estimated not to exceed amount of $374,895.00.
Funding is available under New Passenger Terminal Improvements Project 003343A, included in the Capital Improvement Plan, funded by the Airport Revenue and Operating Fund, a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Terminal Program Grant (Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act), a Florida Department of Transportation Public Transportation Grant, and anticipated future FAA and U.S. Department of Transportation grants.
