The City is seeking qualified professional engineers to provide ongoing engineering services for the Regional Advanced Traffic Management System on an as-needed basis. Services will include design and construction support for fiber communication installation, coordination with multiple city and county departments, attendance at project conferences, preparation of preliminary studies, working drawings and specifications, cost estimates, and analysis services. The contract represents a continuing services arrangement with the potential for multiple awards to establish a pool of qualified engineering firms. The project is federally funded through FEMA and must comply with Florida Statute 287.055 and 2 CFR Part 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements.

The evaluation of proposals will be based on four equally weighted scoring categories totaling 100 points: Qualifications of Company (25 points), Personnel (25 points), Relevant Project Experience and References (25 points), and Approach and Methodology (25 points). Company qualifications shall address firm experience, organizational capacity, and executive summary. Personnel scoring focuses on the qualifications of proposed staff members. Relevant project experience evaluation will validate the proposer's past performance through references and descriptions of similar professional services. Approach and methodology scoring assesses the proposer's understanding of the scope of services and project management practices. References will be used to substantiate claimed experience and past performance across all evaluation criteria.
