IH-959 General Information for Limited Service Agreements - 2025

The North Carolina State Ports Authority (NCSPA) is soliciting Letters of Interest for 2025 Limited-Service Agreements (LSA) across multiple professional service disciplines. The procurement covers an extensive range of professional services grouped into five primary categories: Design Engineering, Utilities, Port Engineering, Environmental, GIS, Hydraulics, and Survey disciplines. These categories encompass over 40 distinct professional service areas, including pavement design, structural engineering, electrical design, foundation investigations, environmental assessments, stream monitoring, and port infrastructure planning. Interested firms must submit their Letters of Interest by 2:00 pm on October 16, 2025, with complete application packets obtainable by contacting Lynn Carrothers or accessing the NCSPA vendor opportunities webpage. Upon selection of new LSA contracts, the Port will cancel all current Limited-Service Agreements, effectively resetting contract timelines for all selected disciplines. Potential respondents are required to demonstrate professional expertise in their specific service areas and must directly communicate with NCSPA to receive comprehensive details about submission requirements and agreement specifications.

The procurement appears to be open to a broad range of professional service firms without explicit set-aside designations or specific enterprise restrictions. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are specifically mentioned in the documentation. While specific award values or budget ranges are not detailed in the provided materials, the comprehensive nature of the solicitation suggests a potentially significant scope of professional services contracts. The LSA process appears designed to establish a pool of qualified professional service providers across multiple technical disciplines critical to port infrastructure and operations. Firms interested in participating must be prepared to demonstrate technical competency, professional credentials, and the ability to provide specialized engineering, environmental, and technical services that support the North Carolina State Ports Authority's operational and developmental needs. The multi-disciplinary approach indicates that NCSPA is seeking a diverse range of professional expertise to support ongoing and future port-related projects.
