Selected consultants will work under the direction of the Town's Engineering Field Services Manager, represent the Town at project progress meetings, perform warranty inspections, and produce punchlists of deficiencies. Work is anticipated to be full-time (40 hours per week) during April through November, with potential for multiple staff assignments during periods of increased construction activity. The evaluation committee will score responses using a weighted criteria system: Firm Qualifications and Relevant Experience (40%), Key Staff Qualifications and Personnel Availability (30%), Key Staff Knowledge and Experience of Development Construction (20%), and Cost and Rate Structure (10%).
