This Request for Qualifications (RFQ) is issued by the City of Folkston, Georgia, to solicit engineering services for water and wastewater resiliency projects. The RFQ encompasses two primary projects: Drinking Water Project No. 34, which involves the design and engineering for a proposed water well, generators, and telemetry system; and Clean Water Project No. 28, which addresses pump station generators and telemetry improvements. Qualified firms must submit responses by the specified deadline to be considered for evaluation. The RFQ process will identify the most qualified engineering firm(s) to provide comprehensive design, permitting, and project management services for these infrastructure resilience initiatives.

The RFQ does not specify pricing in the qualification phase, as this is a qualifications-based selection process focused on evaluating firm experience, credentials, and technical capabilities rather than cost. Both projects are anticipated to be funded through federal and state grant programs related to water infrastructure improvements and resiliency. Interested engineering firms should demonstrate relevant experience with water well design, emergency power systems, and telemetry installations, along with familiarity with applicable regulatory requirements for drinking water and wastewater systems. Firms must provide evidence of qualifications, prior project experience, and the capability to manage projects through design and construction phases in compliance with all applicable codes and regulations.
