This is a Design Project Manual Chapter II attachment document for the City of Rio Rancho's Public Works Traffic Section, providing engineering standards and guidelines for on-call engineering services. The document establishes the technical requirements and procedures that consultants must follow when providing preliminary and final design services, construction estimates, specifications, right-of-way mapping, and construction observation services for traffic-related projects. The scope of work encompasses all necessary coordination, engineering studies, surveys, and analyses required to advance projects through design phases, with consultants expected to provide additional services during construction phases as needed. The consultant must be capable of scaling services based on budget availability and client approval, potentially expanding project scope beyond initial design work into subsequent phases.

The manual chapter establishes the technical and procedural standards that govern how engineering work is to be performed under the on-call contract, including design methodologies, documentation requirements, and quality standards. These guidelines ensure consistency and compliance with the City of Rio Rancho's specifications for traffic engineering projects. The document serves as a reference for both the City and consulting firms regarding acceptable engineering practices, deliverable formats, and project administration procedures. Consultants responding to the RFP must demonstrate their ability to adhere to these standards and requirements, with compensation structured around actual manhours or costs incurred based on work authorized and performed.
