The District seeks qualified firms to provide comprehensive construction management, inspection, project controls, commissioning oversight, contract administration, and technical support during construction, commissioning, and initial operations of the desalination facility. The project will utilize a Progressive Design-Build-Operate-Maintain (PDBOM) delivery model, with construction anticipated to commence following approximately 60% design completion and a Notice to Proceed expected on November 1, 2026. Respondents must submit Statements of Qualifications by September 10, 2026, at 11:00 AM Pacific Daylight Time in both electronic and paper formats.
