On-Call Right-of-Way Services

The City of Liberty Hill, located in Texas, is seeking a Statement of Qualifications (SOQ) from qualified land acquisition firms to provide On-Call Right-of-Way Services for various municipal projects. The Request for Qualifications (RFQ) #S2025-013 specifically targets State Licensed Commercial Real Estate Brokers certified by the Texas Real Estate Commission to deliver comprehensive right-of-way services. These services include title work, negotiations, full property acquisitions, right-of-entry preparation, condemnation support, and relocation assistance. The evaluation criteria will assess respondents across four key areas: relevant qualifications and experience (25 points), available resources and location (25 points), methodology and approach (25 points), and interview performance (25 points). Key dates for this procurement include a non-mandatory pre-solicitation meeting on August 27, 2025, at 11:00 AM CST via Microsoft Teams, with vendor questions due by September 3, 2025, and final submissions required through the Bonfire portal by September 17, 2025, at 2:00 PM CST. The City anticipates making a contract award no later than October 30, 2025, with an initial agreement term of two consecutive twelve-month periods and potential for three additional twelve-month renewals.

The procurement does not specify explicit set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The contract will be awarded under Texas Government Code 2254, which requires pricing information to be submitted separately and only opened after firms are ranked based on qualifications. Respondents must complete specific documentation, including proof of licensure, project team qualifications, documentation of similar project experiences from the past 3-4 years, and conflict of interest documentation such as CIQ and Form 1295 filings. The City reserves the right to make single or split awards, or even no award, based on what serves the City's best interests, with final approval required by the City Council. Late delivery penalties of $500 per day will be assessed for delays in final work product delivery. While a specific budget range is not disclosed, the solicitation suggests this is an on-call, as-needed contract for right-of-way services that will be executed based on specific project requirements in Upton County and potentially other jurisdictions served by the City of Liberty Hill.
