The Town of Taylorsville, located in Tate County, Mississippi, is seeking engineering services through a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for the implementation of approved FY 2025 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) project(s). The selected engineering firm will be responsible for a comprehensive range of project management tasks, including preparing project cost estimates, developing detailed plans and specifications, distributing bid documents, assisting with bid opening and tabulation, helping execute construction contracts, conducting pre-construction conferences, and performing construction inspection with periodic reporting and payment request approvals. The procurement will evaluate proposals based on a point system: Qualifications (40 points), Experience (40 points), and Capacity for Performance (20 points). Proposals must be submitted to the Town Clerk's office by 10 a.m. on March 3, 2025, with the contract to be awarded on a fixed price basis. Individual contracts will be executed for each awarded project, contingent upon CDBG funding and environmental condition clearance.

The Town of Taylorsville actively encourages participation from Minority-owned Business Enterprises (MBEs), Woman-owned Business Enterprises (WBEs), and Section 3 eligible businesses, demonstrating a commitment to diverse vendor participation. While specific contract values are not explicitly stated, the procurement is tied to CDBG funding, which typically supports community infrastructure and development projects. The Town reserves the right to reject any or all proposals and can terminate the selection process at any time, providing flexibility in the procurement approach. Prospective bidders should be prepared to demonstrate significant engineering expertise, particularly in municipal infrastructure and community development project management. Successful respondents will need to show a strong track record of managing similar CDBG-funded projects and the organizational capacity to deliver comprehensive engineering services throughout the project lifecycle.
