CMTA is delivering this project in a hybrid approach that combines a GESA project for the MEP scope, along with a traditional bid and construction process for the site work, structural systems, fire protection, and carpentry. We are coordinating this work with the DCIU design team and local contractors to meet the project schedule and budget.

This project consists of 2 phases. The first phase involved a complete MEP renovation of the existing 107,000 square foot facility.

The second scope involves the following scope:

  • A complete HVAC renovation, including the implementation of a new 4-pipe HVAC system, new building automation system, and new systems for various trade shops throughout the facility that include culinary arts, building trades, automotive technology, logistics, collision repair, and emergency services.
  • A complete plumbing system renovation, including providing new upgraded water and sewer services to service the new addition – energy savings will also be realized through new lower flow fixtures and high efficiency hot water systems
  • A complete electrical system renovation, including a new upgraded utility service – detailed coordination with the utility will be required to ensure continuous power service to the facility
  • A complete LED lighting upgrade
  • Upgraded systems that include fire alarm, security, and telecommunications
  • Marple Education Center
  • A complete HVAC system renovation will be implemented, including new DDC controls, central heating plant, and equipment replacements, mainly consisting of 4-pipe VAV air handling units.
  • Upgrades to the plumbing systems will be implemented to support the new square footage of the building. Energy will also be saved using low flow fixtures and high-efficiency water heaters.
  • A new upgraded electrical service will be implemented to support the additional square footage.
  • A complete LED lighting and controls upgrade will be provided.
  • An extension of special systems will be implemented for the new and renovated areas, including fire alarm, security, telecommunications, speakers and clocks.
