Environmental /Restoration Engineering Services Contiuing Contract

The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) is seeking statements of qualifications from design, surveying, mapping, and engineering firms to provide comprehensive environmental/restoration engineering services through a continuing services contract. The procurement aims to secure professional services for a wide range of environmental resource projects across Florida, including complex activities such as dam design and removal, drone surveys, lake drawdowns, sediment removal, stream restoration, weir and dam construction, dredging, bank stabilization, living shorelines, and ecological restoration of oyster reefs and coral habitats. Qualified respondents must be properly licensed in Florida and submit eight printed copies and one electronic copy of their response, including a Professional Qualifications Supplement, current state license, and Federal GSA Standard Form 330. The solicitation has a specific timeline, with sealed responses due by April 30, 2025, at 3:30 PM ET, anticipated interviews scheduled for June 25-26, 2025, and an intended award date of July 8, 2025. The contract will be an initial five-year period with an option to renew for an additional five years, and a minimum of three respondents may be selected under this continuing contract.

The procurement strongly encourages participation from minority-owned, woman-owned, and service-disabled veteran business enterprises that are certified by the State of Florida Office of Supplier Diversity. Project construction costs and planning fees will be restricted to thresholds specified in Section 287.055 of Florida Statutes. If the contract is renewed, selected consultants will be eligible for a one-time wage rate increase based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) "All Items," not to exceed 15 percent. Vendors must be registered in the MyFloridaMarketPlace (MFMP) system and with Sunbiz prior to the bid opening. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, the contract's scope suggests significant potential for environmental engineering projects across Florida, with opportunities for multiple firms to participate in various restoration and environmental resource initiatives. The procurement is specifically focused on Leon County but has statewide implications for environmental conservation and restoration efforts.
