Turkey Creek Basin Micro-Detection Program

The Cities of Covington and Oxford in Newton County, Georgia, are seeking proposals for a Micro-Detection of Rain-Derived Inflow and Infiltration (RDII) services project in the Turkey Creek Sanitary Sewer Basin. The procurement involves identifying and locating sources of inflow and infiltration across approximately 154,000 linear feet of sanitary sewer mains. Key deliverables include installing micro-detection meters, collecting field data, and producing comprehensive reports detailing ground water infiltration, RDII estimates, flow analysis, and prioritization of rehabilitation areas. Evaluation criteria will be based on team experience (20%), work plan (30%), service and support (5%), delivery schedule (10%), and cost (35%). The RFP requires proposers to have licensed engineers, documented experience with at least 500 level-only installations, and the ability to provide detailed work plans, data collection procedures, and final reporting in both online and printed formats. Key dates include a question submission deadline of October 9, 2025, at 12:00 PM local time, with proposals due on October 16, 2025, at 2:00 PM via QuestCDN. The evaluation will be finalized within 60 days of submission.

The solicitation does not specify any specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises.

The successful contractor will be required to provide performance and payment bonds, each equal to 100% of the contract price. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the comprehensive nature of the project suggests a significant investment in infrastructure assessment and potential rehabilitation. The procurement is open to qualified engineering and infrastructure assessment firms with demonstrated expertise in sanitary sewer system analysis and micro-detection technologies.
