Request to Qualify - Winterset Airport Consultant

The Winterset Airport Authority is issuing a Request to Qualify (RTQ) to solicit Statements of Qualifications from consulting firms capable of providing airfield development and engineering services at Winterset Municipal Airport (3Y3) in Winterset, Iowa, located in Jasper County. This prequalification procurement establishes a roster of qualified consultants who may be engaged on an as-needed basis to support anticipated airfield improvement projects scheduled throughout Federal fiscal years 2026 through 2031. The scope of services encompasses airfield planning, design, development, and infrastructure enhancement services necessary to support airport operations and modernization. Qualified consultants must demonstrate comprehensive experience in airport development, airfield engineering, professional services delivery, and project management capabilities. The selection process will utilize qualification-based evaluation criteria to assess consultant credentials, experience, technical capacity, and demonstrated expertise in airport infrastructure projects. Interested firms must submit comprehensive Statements of Qualifications by the deadline of May 27, 2026, meeting all specified submission requirements and qualification standards established by the Airport Authority.

The RTQ documentation does not specify designated set-asides for disadvantaged enterprises, minority-owned businesses, or other restricted vendor categories; however, all consulting firms meeting the established professional qualifications and experience standards are eligible to respond. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are identified in the available documentation. The procurement does not reference specific existing infrastructure or technology platforms requiring consultant integration or compatibility. Award values and specific budget ranges for individual projects or the overall consultant roster are not disclosed in the posted opportunity materials. The prequalification approach allows the Winterset Airport Authority flexibility to address discrete airfield improvement needs as projects are defined and authorized throughout the five-year planning period while maintaining a curated selection of capable professional service providers.
