Structural Inspection and Design Services

Jefferson County, Colorado is requesting Statements of Qualification for structural inspection and design services on an as-needed basis, with responses due August 18, 2026 at 2 p.m. Mountain Time. This is a prequalification vehicle for potential Master Contract award to multiple top-rated firms; selection does not guarantee any specific work assignment or project award.

The scope spans surveying, bridge/culvert/retaining wall inspection and design, construction management, and roadway infrastructure evaluation across multiple County divisions, particularly Transportation and Engineering. Deliverables include GPS and topographical surveys, structure data collection, inspection and evaluation reports, design calculations and detailing, hydraulic evaluations, construction inspection, materials testing, shop drawing reviews, and as-constructed documentation. Successful contractors must maintain a Colorado-licensed Professional Engineer or Professional Land Surveyor as a project-team member and satisfy County insurance requirements.

Responses must include company information, cover letter, executive summary, three examples of comparable governmental contracts, personnel resumes, and a separate fee schedule detailing hourly rates for regular and after-hours work, material markups, and renewal-year rate caps. Rates must remain firm for one year. Responses are submitted electronically through BidNet (Rocky Mountain E-Purchasing System, RMEPS) and become public record subject to Colorado Open Records Act disclosure.

Selection criteria are experience and qualifications, similar project history, schedule performance, contract variance tracking, litigation history, surety capacity, submittal quality, labor rates, and oral presentations if requested. The County reserves the right to reject any or all responses, waive irregularities, and base awards on factors beyond lowest price. County funds will support the services. Written questions were due July 28, 2026. An addendum was posted August 3, 2026.
