Engineering and Wetland Consulting Services

The Village of Ossining in Westchester County, New York, is seeking a qualified engineering firm to provide comprehensive engineering and wetland consulting services through a competitive Request for Qualifications (RFQ) process. The three-year contract, anticipated to start on October 1, 2025, requires the selected firm to support municipal operations by attending board meetings, reviewing site plans and applications, assisting with stormwater and wetland regulations, and supporting the Village Engineer on infrastructure projects. Proposing firms must demonstrate 20 years of experience providing municipal engineering services specifically in Westchester County. Proposals are due by 12:00 PM on September 11, 2025, with an evaluation timeline that includes staff interviews during the weeks of September 15 and 22, 2025, and a final recommendation to the Board of Trustees on September 24, 2025. The proposal must comprehensively detail firm qualifications, staffing information, references, staff resumes, and a proposed fee structure. Evaluation will likely consider the firm's municipal engineering experience, technical capabilities, and proposed approach to supporting Village infrastructure and regulatory needs.

The Village encourages submissions from Women/Minority Business Enterprises (W/MBE) and has specific insurance requirements for the selected firm, including professional liability insurance of at least $2,000,000 per claim and general liability insurance of $1,000,000 per occurrence. While no specific budget range is detailed, some services will be compensated through escrow accounts as outlined in the Village Code. The Village reserves the right to reject any or all proposals and modify the RFQ or procurement timeline as needed. Prospective firms should note the comprehensive nature of the required submission and the specific local experience requirement of 20 years in Westchester County municipal engineering services. The procurement appears designed to secure a long-term, versatile engineering consulting partner capable of supporting multiple municipal infrastructure and regulatory needs.
