The City of Miami Beach is conducting a Request for Qualifications (RFQ 2025-399-WG) to establish a pool of qualified traffic engineering consultants who can provide professional services for various transportation-related projects. The procurement is structured under Section 287.055 of Florida Statutes, allowing continuing contracts for design services under $7.5 million or studies under $500,000. Consultants will be expected to perform services including site plan analysis, trip generation studies, traffic simulations, queueing and circulation studies, and comprehensive transportation planning. The RFQ seeks licensed Professional Engineers with a State of Florida "Certificate of Authorization" who can rapidly respond to the city's engineering needs. Evaluation of proposals will be qualitative, with 60 points allocated to experience and qualifications and 40 points to approach and methodology, for a total of 100 possible qualitative points. A pre-proposal meeting is scheduled for August 4, 2025, at 10:00 am ET, with proposal responses due on September 5, 2025, at 3:00 pm ET. The initial contract term will be three years, with potential for two additional one-year renewals at the City Manager's discretion. The solicitation includes provisions for various business enterprise designations, including veteran business enterprises, LGBT business enterprises, and small/disadvantaged business certifications. Bidders must complete comprehensive documentation including a Dun & Bradstreet Supplier Qualification Report and attest to compliance with city ordinances, anti-human trafficking regulations, and living wage requirements. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly stated, compensation will be determined on a project-by-project basis through Consultant Service Orders (CSOs), which will utilize hourly rates and potentially include lump sum pricing. The city intends to select multiple firms to create a consultancy pool, ensuring flexibility and rapid engagement for traffic engineering needs. Additional evaluation points may be awarded for veterans' preference and volume of work, with a maximum of 110 total points possible. Bidders must also disclose potential conflicts of interest, campaign contributions, and demonstrate adherence to the city's codes of ethics and drug-free workplace policies.
