This is an Invitation for Bid (IFB) attachment document for leak detection services issued by the City of Austin, Texas Water Utility Department. The City seeks to contract with a qualified vendor to provide leak detection services for approximately 500 linear miles of the city's water distribution system annually. A survey mile is defined as one linear mile of water distribution main as assigned by the City through GIS mapping, regardless of the number of appurtenances inspected within that mile. The contractor must supply all necessary materials, equipment, transportation, and labor to complete the scope of work. The contract encompasses comprehensive leak detection across the city's extensive water infrastructure network.

The document serves as a formal attachment to the IFB package and establishes the technical and operational requirements for service delivery. The contractor is responsible for performing systematic leak detection surveys on designated water main segments throughout the fiscal year. The specific pricing terms, contract duration, renewal options, performance schedules, and any applicable set-asides or incumbent contractor information would be detailed in the primary IFB document and related solicitation materials. This attachment focuses on defining the scope and measurement methodology to ensure clarity regarding deliverables and contractual obligations between the City and the selected contractor.
