Title: On-Call Stormwater Injection Grouting

The City of Raleigh, North Carolina is requesting proposals for an on-call master service agreement for injection grouting of stormwater and transportation infrastructure, with proposals due November 12, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. EST. The RFP emphasizes project approach and understanding (25 percent weight) and proposed cost (35 percent), with corporate background and team experience (25 percent) and firm financial stability (15 percent) as secondary factors; interviews may award up to five additional points.

The scope covers investigation, sealing, and stabilization of culverts, pipes, inlets, junctions, structures, and subsurface voids across Raleigh's 400 miles of stormwater pipe, over 36,000 inlets, and 4,000 junctions. Services include mobilization, traffic control, and three types of polyurethane injection grouting (Type 1 two-component, Type 2 single-component low/medium viscosity, and Type 3 single-component hydrophilic), with estimated quantities of 30 mobilization events, 15 traffic control installations, 200 pounds of Type 1 material, and 300 gallons each of Type 2 and Type 3. All work must comply with OSHA confined-space standards and manufacturer specifications, with a one-year warranty on completed work. The contractor must demonstrate minimum five years of experience in polyurethane grouting installation and five similar projects completed within the past two years. Financial documentation must include audited, reviewed, or compiled statements with specific parameters based on preparation date, plus evidence of financial stability.

The initial contract term is two years with one optional one-year renewal for a maximum term of three years. The contractor bears all proposal development costs and is responsible for obtaining right-of-way permits and traffic control plan approval. Commercial general liability insurance of $1 million per occurrence and $2 million aggregate, automobile liability of $1 million combined single limit, and workers' compensation with $1 million employers' liability limits are required. Questions are due October 28, 2026. Evaluation meetings are anticipated the week of November 16, interviews the week of November 30, and selection announcement tentatively scheduled the week of December 7, 2026.
