Environmental Consultant Services (RFQ/IDIQ) at TSTC

Texas State Technical College (TSTC) is seeking qualified environmental consulting firms through a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract covering environmental services across all 11 TSTC campuses statewide. The solicitation (Solicitation Number 305) is open from September 12, 2025, at 2:30 PM CDT, with proposals due on October 3, 2025, at 2:00 PM CDT. Required services encompass a comprehensive range of environmental consulting activities, including environmental assessments, regulatory compliance, air quality monitoring, impact studies, asbestos and lead inspections, remediation services, and environmental safety consulting. Evaluation criteria will focus on responsiveness, ability to meet specifications, quality of references, and overall best value to the institution. The initial contract term is one year, with options to extend for three additional one-year terms, and TSTC reserves the right to award contracts to multiple firms or make partial awards based on institutional needs. Suppliers must submit a signed Execution of Offer, with electronic funds transfers preferred for payment methods.

While TSTC does not currently mandate a Historically Underutilized Business (HUB) Subcontracting Plan, they strongly encourage suppliers to make good faith efforts toward HUB goals. For project awards exceeding $100,000, a HUB Subcontracting Plan will become mandatory. Pricing will be fixed for the first two years, with any subsequent percentage rate increases requiring prior approval from TSTC. Suppliers must register and submit bids through the Rsolution/Jaggaer procurement platform, with technical support available at 1-800-233-1121 for system access assistance. The college will require separate invoices for each campus location, indicating a decentralized approach to contract management. Although specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, the IDIQ contract structure suggests flexibility in project scope and potential spending. Prospective vendors should carefully review all solicitation documents and ensure compliance with submission requirements to avoid disqualification.
