REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL

12. Provide a detailed plan of the proposed approach and available tools to market and identify real estate options and the process for evaluating these options, and developing a short list and recommendations for review for the projected Denver office expansion. The following is a detailed outline for the three (3) phases (Design/Diagnosis/Delivery) our team will follow as part of a large HQ requirement. Additionally, we’ve highlighted the suite of technology tools we would utilize throughout the evaluation process on the subsequent pages. Typically, we would be engaged at least 18 months in advance of a lease expiration date for a project of this size, so if engaged we’ll immediately work with the B&M team to determine where we can cut time out of the schedule without compromising our leverage to drive the most value for B&M . We do believe we are uniquely positioned to execute this transaction in the most efficient and timely manner in comparison to our competitors for three distinct reasons: 1. Steven Billigmeier and John DeHardt have a long history of working with B&M, know all of the key individuals at B&M involved with real estate, and have negotiated all of the leases/expansions for B&M’s current facility in Denver. 2. C&W has the highest market share of large tenant rep transactions in the southeast suburban submarket. The local large deal experience will allow the team to leverage prior negotiations at many of the top properties in consideration. 3. The unparalleled experience by C&W’s Workplace Strategy team representing the largest engineering firms provides immediate access to industry trends and benchmarks.
