This is a Notice of Intent to Award issued by the Urban Flood Safety & Water Quality District (UFSWQD) in Multnomah County, Oregon, announcing the results of a competitive Request for Proposals for Pump Station Engineering On Call Services. The RFP sought qualified engineering vendors to provide comprehensive pump station services including condition assessments, hydraulic modeling, design services, construction phase support, operations and maintenance assistance, environmental compliance, and programmatic support. Proposals were received on October 31, 2025, and the district completed its evaluation process in November 2025. UFSWQD intends to award two on-call contracts to the highest-rated proposers, Consor North America, Inc. and Schnabel Engineering, LLC, pending Board approval and successful contract execution. The contracts are structured with a five-year base term and options to renew for up to three additional years, with task orders to be issued on an as-needed basis. Each task order will contain a detailed statement of work, performance schedule, and maximum compensation level.

The total shared contract amount for both agreements is $400,000. The RFP evaluation criteria prioritized firm qualifications, relevant experience, project approach, technical expertise, and commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion. Additional evaluation points were available for COBID certification or utilization of certified disadvantaged business subconsultants. The procurement emphasizes the district's objectives of improving water quality, promoting equity, and adapting to climate change through flexible, project-specific engineering engagements that can address both urgent and long-term infrastructure needs.
