Potable Pipeline Cleaning

The City of Aurora, located in Arapahoe County, Colorado, is seeking to pre-qualify contractors for potable water pipeline cleaning services through a Statement of Qualifications (SOQ-25-6072A). The procurement targets contractors capable of providing comprehensive pipeline cleaning for water mains up to 30 inches in diameter, which includes furnishing all necessary labor, materials, equipment, tools, and supplies for certified pipeline cleaning services. The solicitation was advertised on July 17, 2025, with contractor questions due by July 24, 2025, and SOQ submissions required by August 5, 2025, at 2:00 P.M. local time through the Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System. Contractors will be evaluated using a 100-point scoring system that assesses Experience of the Firm (30 points), Certification Methodology (10 points), Technical Competence of Project Manager (20 points), Technical Competence of Superintendent (30 points), and Organization and Completeness of SOQ (10 points). Key evaluation criteria include demonstrating relevant experience with completed similar projects in Colorado within the last five years, standard cleaning procedures, equipment certification, and key personnel qualifications.

The procurement appears to have no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on respondent types. The City reserves the right to contact references, conduct interviews, and select contractors based on comprehensive qualifications, with the understanding that this pre-qualification process does not guarantee any future work. While no specific budget range or award value was explicitly stated in the documentation, the solicitation indicates that only pre-qualified contractors selected through this process will be allowed to bid on future potable water pipeline cleaning projects. The competitive selection process suggests that multiple contractors may be pre-qualified, giving the City flexibility in future project assignments. Interested contractors must submit their qualifications through the Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System, demonstrating their technical capabilities, experience, and organizational competence in potable water pipeline cleaning services.
