On-Call Engineering Services

The Town of Vernon, Connecticut is seeking a professional engineering firm to provide on-call engineering services through a competitive Request for Qualifications (RFQA) solicitation. The procurement, identified as Solicitation No. 2153, is specifically targeting firms with strong expertise in Structural Engineering and associated disciplines. The contract will cover a three-year base period with potential extension for up to two additional one-year periods, contingent upon service quality and funding availability. Proposals must be submitted by March 26, 2025, at 10:00 AM EDT, with two physical copies delivered in a sealed envelope to the Town Administrator at the Vernon Memorial Building. The town requires vendors to demonstrate significant experience in providing engineering services and adherence to industry standards. While no specific evaluation criteria are explicitly detailed in the available documents, the solicitation suggests that technical qualifications and structural engineering expertise will be primary considerations for selection.

The solicitation appears to be open to all qualified vendors without explicit set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises or small businesses. No incumbent vendors or existing technology integration requirements are mentioned in the provided documentation. The procurement does not specify a total contract value or budget range for the on-call engineering services. Notably, the town has specified "Free On Board Destination" delivery terms and requires vendors to specify their own payment terms. The contract will be awarded based on the firm's demonstrated capabilities in structural engineering, with the potential for ongoing service through possible contract extensions. Interested firms should carefully review the complete RFQ document, which references additional documents not included in the current solicitation package.
