The City of Fort Worth, located in Tarrant County, Texas, is seeking proposals for CCTV Inspection Services through RFP #25-0212 for its Transportation & Public Works Department. The procurement aims to establish an as-needed contract for comprehensive closed-circuit television pipeline and manhole inspections. Proposing firms must demonstrate a minimum of three years of related experience and maintain a full-time business address. Deliverables include high-quality digital video recordings in MPEG4 format, using the latest NASSCO PACP (Pipeline Assessment Certification Program) codes, and detailed inspection reports with precise observations, photographs, and route information. The evaluation criteria will allocate points across four key areas: cost (20 points), qualifications/experience/references (20 points), personnel capabilities (30 points), and ability to meet the city's needs (30 points). Proposals are due by September 4, 2025, with electronic submissions required through the Bonfire Portal, and the maximum proposal length is limited to 25 pages. The RFP does not explicitly specify set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises, though the evaluation process suggests consideration for historically underutilized business compliance. Proposers must complete a Conflict of Interest Questionnaire and comply with Chapter 176 of the Local Government Code, which requires disclosure of potential conflicts of interest. The initial contract term is set for one year, with the possibility of up to four one-year renewal periods contingent on mutual agreement and fund availability. While specific budget ranges are not disclosed, payment will be structured per linear foot of inspection, with the city reserving the right to negotiate all proposal elements. Vendors must provide comprehensive insurance coverage, including Commercial General Liability ($1M per occurrence), Automobile Liability ($1M each occurrence), Workers' Compensation (statutory limits), and Professional Liability ($1M per claim). The contract will be awarded on a non-exclusive basis, potentially allowing cooperative purchasing options for other governmental entities.
