This is a firm experience qualifications form prepared by the City of Palo Alto for evaluation of engineering firms responding to a Water System Master Plan project. The City of Palo Alto Utilities Department seeks proposals from engineering firms to provide comprehensive consulting services for potable water system master planning, including engineering assessment and capital improvement program planning for the city's water distribution, storage, water supply, distribution piping network, and potable water facility sites. The project requires firms to evaluate the existing potable water system over a 20-year planning horizon, identify system deficiencies, recommend necessary improvements, and develop capital improvement program recommendations for 5, 10, and 20-year projections. The scope of work encompasses water system capital improvements, system operation analysis, risk and resiliency planning, and hydraulic modeling.

The qualification form requests firms to provide detailed information on relevant project experience, including project name, client, description of work performed, total project cost, percentage of work the firm was responsible for, and the period in which the work was completed. Firms must include client contact information with names, titles, and phone numbers. The form requires firms to confirm whether they met project schedules and budgets for each referenced project and provide brief statements describing their adherence to schedule and budget performance. The form does not specify pricing terms, contract award dates, or contract duration in the provided document.
