This is a Request for Proposals (RFP) document from Franklin County, Ohio, soliciting professional engineering and construction management services for infrastructure projects. The county is seeking qualified firms to provide design, engineering, and construction administration services for various capital improvement projects within the county. The RFP indicates that proposals must be submitted by the specified due date, with evaluation based on qualifications, experience, approach methodology, and cost proposals. The contract term is to be determined based on project scope and complexity, with potential for multiple projects or task orders under a master services agreement. Site visits and pre-proposal meetings are encouraged to allow bidders to familiarize themselves with project sites and requirements.

Pricing will be negotiated based on the scope of work for each project phase, with compensation structured through cost-plus-fee or lump-sum arrangements depending on project type. The county anticipates awarding contracts to qualified engineering firms capable of delivering comprehensive services from preliminary design through project closeout. Preference may be given to firms with demonstrated experience on similar municipal infrastructure projects, local presence or partnerships, and minority or women-owned business certifications. Funding for the projects is anticipated through county capital improvement budgets and potential state or federal grants. The RFP emphasizes the importance of past performance, technical capabilities, and the proposed project team's qualifications in the evaluation process.
