Small Roadway and Drainage Engineering Services

Williamson County is soliciting qualifications from engineering firms to provide design and engineering services for small roadway and drainage projects under its Road Bond Program, Road and Bridge Division program, Development Services & Drainage Division program, and County Facilities, with qualifications due August 18, 2026. The County anticipates selecting approximately three firms, though the Commissioners Court may select more or fewer at its discretion.

Respondents must be registered with the Texas Board of Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors (PELS) and must confirm this registration in their transmittal letter. The scope encompasses planning, design, survey, identification of needed right-of-way, preparation of environmental documents, and preparation of probable-cost estimates for County-owned infrastructure projects. The contract explicitly excludes third-party developer plat reviews, driveway permit reviews, and FEMA floodplain program administration.

The Statement of Qualifications must include a transmittal letter, organizational chart, project manager experience summary, team experience documentation for seal coat and overlay work, roadway design, environmental services, and drainage services, team availability information, project understanding and technical capabilities statement, and quality control procedures. All materials must follow strict formatting: single-sided pages with standard margins, 12-point minimum font size (except on organizational charts), and Calibri or similar font.

The prime firm's proposed project manager is expected to remain committed to the contract duration without delegation or substitution; staff substitution may result in contract revocation. Notice to proceed is anticipated in October 2026. Questions due and pre-bid meeting dates are not identified in the source.
