RFQ Systemic Intersection and Pedestrian Safety Improvement Project

The City of SeaTac is soliciting qualifications from consulting firms with expertise in civil engineering and traffic engineering design for the Systemic Intersection and Pedestrian Safety Improvement Project, with statements of qualifications due October 9, 2026.

The scope centers on developing comprehensive safety improvement recommendations through systemic analysis of problem intersections and pedestrian facilities throughout SeaTac. Qualified firms must demonstrate expertise in traffic engineering, pedestrian safety analysis, intersection design, and civil engineering. The RFQ emphasizes qualifications-based selection rather than cost competition at this stage; pricing will be negotiated following qualifications evaluation.

Evaluation criteria prioritize relevant project experience, technical expertise, staffing qualifications, and understanding of pedestrian and intersection safety principles. The anticipated contract term is subject to consultant performance and the City's funding availability. A pre-submittal meeting or site visit may be available for interested firms to gain familiarity with project locations and requirements.

The City may consider local business participation and disadvantaged business enterprise participation goals if applicable to the project. Funding derives from the City's transportation improvement budget and may include state or federal safety grant sources. Following qualifications evaluation, selected firms will advance to contract negotiations where project scope, schedule, and fee structure will be finalized based on the City's specific requirements and available funding.
