REF: CONSTRUCTION SERVICES PROPOSAL
NASHUA PUBLIC LIBRARY — WEST WING RENOVATION

1FB0745-083116

EXECUTIVE SUFAMARY LETTER

PO box 43

In response to the Submittal Requirements listed in the above reference IFB, we are pleased to
submit our bid proposal for Construction Services,

As past residents of the City of Nashua, we are honored and excited to be submitting a proposal
for joining your Project Team. In addition, John’s recent 2-year contract for Owner’s
Representative services for Nashua, in which he reported to the Mayor and CFO, provided an
oppartunity for him to become familiar with the many departments and staff of New
Hampshire’s thriving Gate City. Projects included the new boilers and carpet at the Library.

For the West Wing Renovation, John will serve as Project Manager and Site Superintendent, and
Managing Member Judith will provide Contract Administration services. Resumes are attached.

The Project is straightforward, but as in all construction projects, communication, planning and
quality control are essential to a smooth process and successful outcome. We will listen to the
concerns and expectations of the Board of Trustees and of the Design Team headed by Peter

Tennant.

In addition to weekly progress meetings, we plan to have preinstallation conferences with
subcontractors for each major task. We plan to provide dust barriers at the doors to
Corridor 03, Back Room 02, and to create a temporary passage for staff to access the offices
through the double doors on the South wall.

The first phase will be selective demolition, including salvage of indicated light fixtures and
devices, removal of the existing walis and contents of Training Rm 08, and removal of carpeting,
acoustic ceiling tiles, and column covers. [Note that existing spline ceiling tiles are on a
suspension system and it may be possible to keep at least the grid support in place]. If the
Alternate No. 4 ADA Bathroom is selected, that demo will occur concurrently.

Moisture mitigation, if selected, will be installed at this point in order to seal beneath partitions
and millwork. Next phase will be framing of new metal stud partitions, which will frame te the
waffle slab grid, unless Alternate No. 2 Aluminum Storefront is selected. in that case, due to
the lead time, we will proceed with rough MEP’s throughout the space.

Insulation, drywall and prime painting will follow rough-ins and inspections. Acoustic ceiling
grid, doors, hardware, windows, and millwork/trim are installed next, and then finish paint and

finish. Final work consists of flooring, TAB, final clean and punchlist.

As you can see, the construction schedule, which we develop on MS Project software, will be
somewhat dependent on the selection of alternates, if any.

We look forward to delivering this project to you on time and on budget and in our trademark
“user-friendly” fashion. it will be a space in which we all can take pride and which the public

can enjoy for years to come.

We thank you for the opportunity to bid
