The City of Grenada, Mississippi is soliciting sealed proposals from qualified firms or individuals to provide comprehensive engineering services for its 2026 Community Development Block Grant Public Facilities Project. The scope of work includes preparation of preliminary cost estimates, development of plans and specifications for bid advertisement, bid evaluation and contract award recommendations, contract preparation in compliance with CDBG and applicable federal, state, and local regulations, pre-construction conference coordination, construction inspection, and advisory services to the board of supervisors regarding contractor payments. Sealed proposals marked "ENGINEERING PROPOSAL - City of Grenada 2026 CDBG" must be submitted to the Grenada City Clerk at 108 S Main Street, Grenada, MS 38901 no later than 5:00 p.m. on April 22, 2026. Proposals will be evaluated and scored on a 100-point system based on three criteria: Qualifications (35 points), Experience (35 points), and Capacity for Performance (30 points), with applicants required to provide detailed information on staff qualifications, firm experience with relevant project types, and available staffing capacity to complete the work within specified timeframes. The City Council will make the final award decision following a Selection Committee recommendation based on competitive evaluation, with negotiations to be conducted first with the highest-rated firm to establish a mutually satisfactory contract contingent upon project funding approval. The advertisement was published on March 25, 2026, and April 1, 2026, in the Legal Section of the Grenada Star newspaper, with additional information available from Brittany Dallas at the North Central Planning and Development District, (662)283-2675.

The City of Grenada is an Equal Opportunity Employer and actively encourages submissions from Minority-owned Business Enterprises (MBEs), Woman-owned Business Enterprises (WBEs), and Section 3 eligible businesses. No incumbent vendors, current contractors, or specific budget ranges are identified in the procurement documents. The project is funded through the Community Development Block Grant program, which carries federal funding restrictions and compliance requirements that successful proposers must be capable of meeting. While no explicit award value is disclosed, the comprehensive nature of the engineering services—encompassing design, inspection, and advisory functions—suggests a substantial contract requiring experienced professionals with demonstrated capacity in CDBG-funded public facilities projects.
