Rock Imagery Survey at Hueco Tanks State Park and Historic Site

This state and local contracting opportunity is a Request for Proposals (RFP) issued by the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD) for a contractor to conduct a 100% survey of rock imagery (pictographs and petroglyphs) across all high probability areas within the 860-acre Hueco Tanks State Park and Historic Site in El Paso County, Texas. The survey must cover the North Mountain, West Mountain, East Mountain, and East Spur areas of the park. The contractor will be required to map the locations of any previously undocumented rock imagery, take digital photographs, and catalog the imagery in an ArcGIS database. The project is expected to be completed in four phases over four years, with the contractor submitting progress reports and a final report. Minimum qualifications include 5 years of experience in rock imagery services and demonstrated expertise in survey techniques and technology. Pricing will be evaluated based on the compensation and fees schedule, and the contract will be awarded to the responsible respondent providing the best value to the state. The due date for proposals is August 22, 2024.

It also does not list any incumbent vendors or current contractors, nor does it provide any information on existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration.
