  1. INTRODUCTION
    The City of Suwanee (“City”) is soliciting proposals to select a Design-Builder based on qualifications,
    project approach, and other factors, and to proceed using a design-build process.
    The project involves two distinct scopes of work delivered under a single design-build contract:
    • Renovation of an existing 2,000 square foot, 1940’s era house and grounds, into the Creative
    Arts, Media & Gathering Hub, and
    • Demolition of an existing detached shed and construction of a new 30’ × 50’ metal building (the
    Pottery Barn) in its place.
    The City engaged Lord Aeck Sargent (LAS) to prepare a conceptual expansion study, which is attached as
    Exhibit A to this RFP. The LAS study establishes the programmatic vision, spatial framework, and design
    intent that the selected design-build firm will develop into construction documents. The design-build
    team is expected to bring its own licensed architect and to carry the project from schematic design
    through construction completion.
