Prince George’s County Public Schools will utilize a design, build, finance and maintenance (DBFM) alternative financing model to deliver six (6) new public schools by 2023 and be the first jurisdiction in the nation to utilize the private sector to bundle a multi-school construction program. This unique partnership, called Alternative Construction Financing (ACF) and authorized recently by state law, will allow Prince George’s County Public Schools (PGCPS) to build these 6 schools, which will include five (5) new middle schools and one (1) K-8 school, in just three (3) years totaling more than 8,000 seats.

The innovative project delivery model requires the private development team to maintain the physical condition of the six schools for 30 years.
Lower costs for construction due to scale and cap on future construction cost escalation
Using traditional public school construction methods, it would take significantly longer to build these six schools.
