Pre- mini-solicitation notice City of Springfield Transportation System Plan

This is a pre-mini-solicitation notice issued by the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) on behalf of the City of Springfield for a comprehensive Transportation System Plan (TSP) major update under the TLUP 21 Price Agreement. The procuring jurisdiction is the City of Springfield, Oregon, with ODOT administering the procurement. The consultant will be responsible for completing a major update to Springfield's TSP to comply with recent Transportation Planning Rules updates while emphasizing greenhouse gas emissions reduction, multimodal transportation safety, and equity considerations within the Urban Growth Boundary. Key deliverables and objectives include developing an integrated multi-modal transportation network adequate to support existing and planned land uses through 2050, conducting Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) per capita reduction analysis, preparing a financially constrained project list, and updating land use assumptions in coordination with Lane Council of Governments (LCOG). The project must incorporate concurrent planning initiatives including the Springfield Active Transportation Plan (Walk and Roll Springfield), the Long-Range Transit Plan by Lane Transit District, and newly adopted Climate-Friendly Areas designation. The consultant must also address transportation planning for two previously designated Urban Holding Areas expanded in 2016 (North Gateway and S. 28th areas), integrate multimodal inventory data, and ensure compliance with updated street standards and parking regulations adopted in January 2024. The pre-solicitation notice was posted on May 15, 2026, with the actual mini-solicitation anticipated to be released in June 2026; Stacie Olano (Stacie.olano@odot.oregon.gov) serves as the single point of contact for the procurement.

This mini-solicitation is restricted to nine pre-qualified vendors holding TLUP 21 Price Agreement contracts, specifically those designated as B38909, B38913, B38914, B38916, B38917, B38918, B38922, B38923, and B38924. Only these eligible price agreement holders may respond to the upcoming mini-RFP; this set-aside restricts competition to pre-qualified consultants already under existing framework agreements with ODOT. The notice does not specify disadvantaged enterprise set-asides, incumbent contractor preferences, or specific budget ranges for the project. Prospective respondents should note that successful consultants will need to demonstrate experience with comprehensive transportation planning at the municipal level, familiarity with current Oregon Transportation Planning Rules, expertise in multimodal and equity-focused planning, and the capability to coordinate with multiple agencies including Lane Transit District and Lane Council of Governments. The pre-solicitation phase provides an opportunity for eligible vendors to prepare for the full mini-RFP release anticipated in June 2026, with the formal due date for proposals expected in early June 2026 based on the posted deadline of June 5, 2026.
