Construction Risk Management Services

The City of Oakland, California, is seeking a consultant to provide construction risk management services to evaluate the adequacy and reasonableness of a project's hard cost budget. The agency needs this review and analysis to inform its options regarding project evaluation and future loan disbursements. The selected partner must conduct a site visit to assess current conditions, plans, specifications, and budget alignment with construction objectives. The scope of work requires the consultant to determine if the budget encompasses all contemplated work components and to ensure costs are not front-end loaded. The consultant must confirm that the cost breakdown is balanced and usable as a standard for future disbursements, providing quantitative or comparative analyses as applicable. This review covers the project schedule, including mobilization, milestones, substantial completion, punch lists, and final completion, as well as architectural, structural, MEP, civil, landscape, and tenant fit-out drawings. Eligible bidders must be onshore organizations based in the United States. The agency requires the selected contractor to perform all work onsite in Oakland. The agency is looking for budget proposals to determine the cost of these services. Bidders must submit all questions regarding this opportunity no later than June 10, 2026.
