This Request for Statement of Qualifications (RFSQ) is issued by the Los Angeles County Department of Beaches and Harbors to solicit qualified consultants for master agreement services in engineering, architecture, landscape architecture, and urban planning disciplines. The department seeks vendors to provide as-needed consultant services for projects located in County-owned and unincorporated areas of Marina del Rey, the Marina del Rey harbor, and County-owned and operated beaches. The RFSQ solicits applications from firms experienced in coastal and harbor engineering, architectural design, landscape architecture, and urban planning to support the department's project delivery across these coastal and recreational areas. The procurement establishes master agreements rather than project-specific contracts, allowing the County flexibility to call upon qualified vendors as project needs arise. Specific response deadlines, site visit requirements, and bidder conference details are contained within the document guidelines.

The master agreement structure allows for multiple awards across the qualified disciplines, with vendors available on an as-needed basis to support the County's harbor and beach operations and improvements. This approach provides the County with pre-qualified consultant resources while maintaining flexibility in project execution and scope management. The agreements will facilitate timely delivery of engineering and design services without requiring separate competitive procurements for individual projects. Funding for consultant services will be drawn from the Department of Beaches and Harbors operating budget and project-specific funding sources as projects are authorized and initiated under the master agreements.
