CMA vs CMAR Models Terra is willing and capable to serve as the CMA or CMAR. We are also willing to do so without bidding or acting as the "contractor" of any of the work. We would not need any special requirements met to serve as the CMAR. Terra would include the Owner and the design team in the bid package development and subcontractor/prime contractor review and selection process. Under the CMAR delivery method, Terra would propose delivering the Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) to the City of Elk River at the end of Design - Development (DD's) or at any time after the DD;'s prior to completion of the Construction Documents (CD's).
