This information collection applies to
General Services Administration (GSA) construction contractors’
proposals to establish the final estimated cost of the work, to
convert the contract to a firm-fixed-price, and to determine the
final settlement. Construction Manager as Constructor (CMc) refers
to a project management and contracting technique that is one of
three predominant methods used for acquiring construction services
by GSA. The other two methods are design-bid-build and
design-build. The information is used by contracting officers to
evaluate proposals and negotiate contract modifications during
contract administration. GSA would be unable to assess readily and
equitably offers fairly and competitively if they were not allowed
to collect data required in the information collection. Method:
GSAR 552.236-79, Construction-Contractor-as-Constructor, requires
the contractor to submit a proposal to establish the final
estimated cost of the work, to convert the contract to a
firm-fixed-price, and to determine the final settlement.
