Silver Queen Water Main Upgrades RFP.pdf

This is a Request for Proposals (RFP) from the Town of Breckenridge for Silver Queen Water Main Upgrades, seeking design consulting services to upgrade the water distribution main between the Silver Queen Tank and Highway 9. The project involves upgrading approximately 4,265 linear feet of existing water main to a 16-inch pipe, with most of the project planned for 2027/2028 as part of the Gary Roberts Water Treatment Plant rehabilitation project. Proposals are due on December 12, 2025, at 10:00 a.m. MST, with interviews scheduled for December/January 2025 and a contract award targeted for January 2025. The selected consultant will be responsible for leading the project through various design phases, including field investigations, project design scheduling, construction plans and specifications, cost estimates, and obtaining necessary easements.

The project requires the consultant to provide comprehensive services, including geotechnical drilling, utility locates, field surveys, and developing construction documents at 30%, 90%, and final stages. The Town will provide GIS data and coordinate property owner easements. The consultant must submit detailed financial information, including a statement of financial capability, and provide insurance coverage including General Liability ($2,000,000 per claim), Professional Liability ($2,000,000 per claim), Workers Compensation, and Comprehensive Automobile Liability ($2,000,000 per claim). The project includes a unique approach where the Town wants to start construction on the first part of the project as soon as possible while finalizing the complete design, and intends to utilize a CM/GC contract to get input on constructability, cost estimates, and project coordination.
