This Request for Proposals issued by the City of Albany, Georgia seeks qualified firms to develop and implement a comprehensive hydraulic modeling and system analysis program for the City's municipal water distribution system. The City is requesting consulting services to create a fully functional, calibrated hydraulic model that integrates with the existing ArcGIS system and enables City staff to independently operate, maintain, and expand the model post-completion. The water distribution system comprises approximately 700 miles of water mains, nearly 4,000 fire hydrants, approximately 7,600 valves, 28 groundwater production wells, and 11 elevated storage tanks serving approximately 36,000 customer accounts. Competitive sealed proposals must be received by November 23, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. at the City of Albany Procurement Division, 222 Pine Avenue, Suite 260, Albany, GA 31701.

Additional deliverables include identification of GIS discrepancies, missing infrastructure, data corrections, and hydraulic deficiencies with recommended operational or capital improvements.
