The Winston County Partnership is seeking proposals from qualified engineering firms or individuals to provide comprehensive services for an Appalachian Regional Commission (ARC) funded Industrial Buildings Improvement Project for Fiscal Year 2026 in Yazoo County, Mississippi. The procurement requires seven copies of a sealed proposal to be submitted to the Winston Partnership Office by 2 p.m. on November 21, 2025. Deliverables include preparing project cost estimates, developing plans and specifications, distributing bid documents, assisting with bid opening and tabulation, executing construction contracts, conducting preconstruction conferences, and performing construction inspection with periodic reporting and payment request approval. The selection process will be conducted by the Winston County Partnership Selection Committee, who will evaluate proposals based on three weighted criteria: Qualifications (40 points), Experience (40 points), and Capacity for Performance (20 points). Proposals must comprehensively address personnel qualifications, firm experience with similar projects, grant history, project status, and staff assignments. The contract will be executed on a fixed price basis for each awarded project, and the selection is contingent upon ARC funding and removal of environmental conditions.

The Winston County Partnership is an Equal Opportunity Employer that explicitly encourages submissions from Minority-owned Business Enterprises (MBEs) and Woman-owned Business Enterprises (WBEs). The selection committee may hold proposals for up to thirty days to review content and investigate firm qualifications, and they reserve the right to reject any or all proposals or terminate the selection process at any time. All questions regarding the proposal should be directed to Mandee Lewis at Golden Triangle PDD at (662) 324-7860. While specific budget ranges were not explicitly stated, the project is tied to ARC funding for industrial building improvements. The procurement is open to a wide range of engineering firms and individual consultants who can demonstrate appropriate qualifications, experience in similar infrastructure projects, and the capacity to execute the required engineering services for industrial facility improvements in Yazoo County.
