The Jefferson Davis County Board of Supervisors is seeking sealed proposals from qualified firms to provide comprehensive services for the HOME Homeowner Rehabilitation Program. This procurement seeks professional services including home inspections, legal consultation, environmental assessments, and surveying for a project involving the reconstruction of two homes and rehabilitation of seven homes. Qualified home inspectors must be Mississippi licensed with a new home (NH) designation and conduct three periodic construction inspections throughout the project. Environmental inspectors must be certified by the Department of Environmental Quality to assess asbestos and lead-based paint risks. Legal service providers will be responsible for consultation and title opinions, while surveyors must conduct boundary inspections and produce site plans for nine total parcels. The proposal evaluation will be based on qualifications (30 points), experience (40 points), and availability/capacity (30 points), with the award going to the most qualified offeror whose proposal is deemed most advantageous to the county. Proposals are due on Friday, October 10, 2025, at 1:00 p.m., and must be submitted to the Clerk of the Board in Prentiss, Mississippi, with specific envelope labeling requirements.

The procurement appears to be open to all qualified professional service firms without specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The project is funded through HUD/Mississippi Home Corporation, indicating potential federal guidelines and oversight. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the services will be contracted on a per unit or per parcel basis, suggesting flexibility in pricing and scope. The Jefferson Davis County Board of Supervisors reserves the right to negotiate agreements and reject any proposals deemed unqualified or inappropriate. Interested firms should carefully review the requirements, as the county seeks highly specialized professionals with specific state certifications and demonstrated experience in home rehabilitation project services. The comprehensive nature of the required services—spanning inspections, legal work, environmental assessments, and surveying—indicates a complex, multi-faceted rehabilitation initiative aimed at improving residential properties within the county.
