Dane County, Wisconsin, in conjunction with Mattoon Village, is conducting a competitive Request for Proposals (RFP) for intersection design engineering services at the CTH CV/Hoepker Road intersection. This is a professional services procurement seeking qualified engineering consultants to develop comprehensive design solutions addressing operational and safety concerns at the specified intersection location. The selected consultant must be registered on the WisDOT Roster of Eligible Engineering Consultants to be eligible for contract award. The scope of work includes designing traffic improvements and intersection modifications, developing final design plans and engineering documents that comply with Wisconsin Department of Transportation standards, and delivering engineering documents suitable for construction implementation. Deliverables must address specific design requirements and technical specifications consistent with WisDOT guidelines. The county will evaluate all proposals based on consultant qualifications and experience, demonstrated project understanding, technical approach and methodology, cost competitiveness, and ability to meet established project timelines. The RFP was posted on February 27, 2026, with a proposal submission deadline of March 31, 2026.

The RFP documentation does not explicitly identify set-aside designations or restrictions limiting responses to specific categories of organizations, disadvantaged enterprises, or minority-owned businesses. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified in the available procurement documents. The solicitation requires consultants to submit detailed cost estimates using the standardized WisDOT consultant contract cost estimate workbook template, which accommodates various compensation arrangements including lump sum, actual cost, and conditional task structures. The template requires comprehensive breakdowns of direct labor costs, indirect costs, fixed fees, and direct expenses, with calculations of weighted average hourly rates. The specific award value or budget range for this contract is not disclosed in the available RFP documentation, though compensation will be determined based on the scope of work outlined in the proposal and through negotiated agreement between the county and the selected consultant.
