The Department of Education and Early Development has prepared a second draft revision to the Project Delivery Method Handbook, 2nd Ed. The publication provides guidance regarding the process for using a capital project delivery method other than the Design-Bid-Build established in 4 AAC 31.080 for school construction and major maintenance projects.
Major revisions include discussion of two common project strategies, and their fit into the approved delivery methods framework, and the addition of two appendices, which provide tools for use in preparing and evaluating alternative delivery method requests.
The draft publication, in a "tracked changes" format, is an attachment to this notice.
Comments may be emailed to Lori.Weed@alaska.gov not later than Thursday, August 31, 2017, for consideration during the review of the publication at the Wednesday, September 6, 2017, Bond Reimbursement and Grant Review Committee meeting. A limited opportunity for public comment will also be available at the meeting.
