FM #1203 = This is the Franklin Matters radio show, number 1203 in the series.
This session shares the Franklin (MA) Police Station Building Committee meeting held on Monday, May 13, 2024. In this meeting, they conducted three interviews with firms to select the Owner Project Manager (OPM).
There is a brief overview of the process, then the three firms (Vertex, Collier, and CHA) are interviewed. There are brief recesses between each interview. That recess audio section was removed and replaced with a brief bit of musical interlude.
The three firms in order of appearance were Vertex, Collier, and CHA. CHA was the unanimous choice as the top firm. Vertex second, and Collier third.
Town Administrator Jamie Hellen will commence negotiations on contract with CHA and assuming it is successful, the project will proceed. If not, the second vendor will begin negotiations.
The recording runs about 2 hours & 45 minutes, so let’s listen in. Audio link ->
