LPSS - Public Meeting - Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) - September 9, 2026

The Lafayette Parish School System held a public meeting on September 9, 2026, to conduct a briefing and training session for the Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR) selection review committee. The meeting focused on preparing the committee to evaluate statements of qualifications (SOQs) for a construction project with an approximate $40 million budget involving new construction, renovation, demolition, and specialized educational spaces. The committee reviewed the procurement process, including minimum requirements, evaluation criteria, ranking procedures, and interview protocols. No proposals were evaluated or ranked during this session, as it was strictly for training and procedural purposes. The committee was reminded of ethics requirements, communication protocols, and public record obligations. Future meetings were scheduled for evaluation, ranking, interviews, and final board consideration.
