II. CONSTRUCTION MANAGER INTERVIEWS
The Committee welcomed the five firms that were invited to interview to provide Construction Manager Services to the Town of Avon. Those firms were:
1. FIP Construction
2. Cutter Enterprises
3. Downes Construction
4. Enfield Builders
5. Enterprise Builders
According to their schedule each firm gave a presentation about themselves, after which the Committee asked a standard set of questions of each firm.
At the conclusion of the interviews the Committee adjourned to a conference room on the second floor to discuss the interviews and their next steps in the process. The members discussed their impressions of each of the firms and which ones to consider further in the process. The Committee decided to pursue four of the firms, eliminating Cutter Enterprises from consideration. At that point the Committee opened the price proposals from the firms. They asked Ms. Robinson to analyze the information and perform follow up with each of the firms as needed to clarify their proposals. They also decided to have four of the members conduct reference checks on the four firms. They agreed to discuss both of these items at the next meeting.
