Engineering Services for Water Treatment Plant Facility Repair Project

The City of Goldsboro, North Carolina is requesting qualifications for engineering services supporting Water Treatment Plant facility structural repairs, with responses due August 19, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. under RFQ 2026-001.

The scope encompasses preliminary engineering (kickoff meetings, document review, field investigations), design phase (plans, specifications, cost estimates, permit identification, contractor licensing requirements), and bidding/contracting phase activities (bid documents, contractor inquiry response, construction administration and observation). Work addresses restoration of window and door lintels, repair of concrete-encased beams, and remediation of wall cracking within WTP basins at 1201 Jordan Blvd., Goldsboro, NC 27530.

The City will evaluate qualifications using five equally weighted criteria of 20 points each: Personnel Qualifications, Project Understanding, Past Performance/References, Project Management Experience, and Relevant Firm Experience and Capacity to Perform. A Selection Committee will independently score each response before potential discussion and ranking. The City reserves the right to request interviews and will negotiate with the most qualified consultant, proceeding to subsequent firms if necessary until agreement is reached.

Qualifications packages are limited to ten double-sided pages (8.5" × 11", font 10 or larger) and must be submitted electronically through the City's bidding website. Written questions are due August 5, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. If federal funding supports any resulting contract, federal provisions apply, including Equal Employment Opportunity, Davis-Bacon Act, and Copeland Anti-Kickback Act requirements. The City will not reimburse response preparation expenses and reserves the right to reject all submissions and retain all submitted ideas regardless of selection outcome.
