### Prince George's County Public Schools (PGCPS) - Blueprint Schools

Prince George's County , Maryland

*"Gilbane is more than just a one-stop builder, they’re helping us to support our community, and that’s key."*

**Dr. Monica Goldson, CEO, Prince George's County Public Schools**

 

 

Following a competitive procurement process, PGCPS selected Prince George’s County Education and Community Partners (Gilbane Development Company and Fengate as Developer, Gilbane Building Company as Design-Build Contractor, Stantec and Designer and Architect of Record and Honeywell as Services Provider) to design, build, finance, and maintain (DBFM) six public schools, adding 8,000 seats across 5 new middle schools and one K-8 school. PGCPS is the first district in the U.S to embrace an alternative delivery approach to design-build-finance-maintain a group of public schools building, and the approach is expected to cut the delivery time in half while saving over $174 million in deferred maintenance and construction costs.

Economic stimulus as a result of the program include inclusion goals through diverse and local business utilization, with construction targeting 30% minority business enterprise participation, with 20% directed to community-based businesses creating 3,000 jobs; 3,000+ new jobs created; 2% local GDP increase; and LEED Silver equivalency targeted.
