The new dormitory will be connected to the existing Commons Building and will include essential building systems such as HVAC, electrical, plumbing, fire suppression, and security systems. Contractors with experience in large-scale construction projects, particularly those familiar with fire safety regulations and remote site operations, are encouraged to bid.
