Engineering Services for Aerial Sewer Line Replacement

The Town of Spindale in North Carolina is seeking qualified professional engineering firms to provide engineering design services for the replacement of an existing 24-inch aerial sewer line over Hollands Creek. The project, which is funded by a FEMA grant through the North Carolina Department of Public Safety's Division of Emergency Management, Hazard Mitigation program, will involve evaluating pipe replacement options and developing construction documents for the selected alternative. The selected firm is expected to begin work immediately upon contract award and complete the project within a 15-month timeframe. Respondents will be evaluated based on their professional qualifications, specialized experience, capacity to meet the project schedule, past performance, and knowledge of the Town's sewer system. The total project budget is not to exceed $285,714, and the agreement will be awarded on a lump sum or cost reimbursement "not to exceed" basis.

The Town of Spindale is encouraging small, female, minority, and local firms to submit proposals. The Town reserves the right to reject any or all proposals and to select the most qualified firm for the referenced work. The Request for Qualifications (RFQ) does not list any incumbent vendors or current contractors, and it does not mention any existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration.
