The Clarke County Board of Supervisors in Mississippi is soliciting proposals from qualified firms or individuals to provide engineering services for the implementation of approved FY 2024 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) project(s). The selected Engineer will be responsible for the full scope of engineering services through project closeout, including preparing plans and specifications, assisting with bid processes, holding pre-construction conferences, and performing construction inspections. Proposals will be evaluated based on Qualifications (40%), Experience (40%), and Capacity for Performance (20%), and the contract will be awarded on a fixed-price basis. Interested parties are invited to submit five (5) copies of their proposal by April 15, 2024, and the County reserves the right to reject any and all proposals.

The County encourages Minority-owned Business Enterprises (MBEs), Woman-owned Business Enterprises (WBEs), and Section 3 eligible businesses to submit proposals. Section 3 of the Housing and Urban Development Act of 1968 requires the County and its contractors to provide job training and employment opportunities to lower-income residents of the County, and to award contracts to Section 3 eligible business concerns to the greatest extent feasible. The procurement does not list any incumbent vendors or current contractors, and the County has the authority to terminate the selection at any time.
