Structural Design and Analysis

The City of Leander, Texas is seeking Statements of Qualifications from firms with municipal experience in structural design and analysis to build a three-year pre-qualified professional services pool, with submissions due December 1, 2026. Selection to the pool does not guarantee award of any task order.

The City awards work through task orders on an as-needed basis. It may issue an RFP for an individual project or select pool members directly based on their submitted qualifications. Each task order is negotiated for a single project. Williamson County is the designated jurisdiction, and the agreement is governed by Texas law with venue exclusively in Williamson County courts.

Basic services are compensated on a unit-price-per-unit-of-work basis under each task order, with reimbursable project expenses typically included in the basic services fee unless otherwise agreed in writing. Additional services outside the agreed scope are billed on actual hours at the engineer's standard hourly rates in Exhibit C. The City pays undisputed amounts within 30 days of invoice approval, with interest on past-due amounts under Texas Government Code Section 2251.021. The City may terminate with 30 days' notice and pays only for services rendered through the termination date.

The engineer must carry professional liability insurance and commercial general liability coverage, each with limits of not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence, plus workers' compensation meeting Texas requirements. The engineer must also comply with Texas statutory requirements regarding boycotts of Israel, energy companies, and firearm entities.
