TxDOT Aviation Division- Notice to Consultants

The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) Aviation Division is seeking qualifications from consultants to provide professional airport planning services for the Wood County Airport-Collins Field in Wood County, Texas. The scope of work includes preparing an Airport Layout Plan (ALP) with narrative, incorporating FAA AGIS requirements, developing a Capital Improvement Plan, updating the airport property map, establishing airport improvement goals, and developing zoning and land use compatibility measures. Respondents must utilize TxDOT's Form AVN-551 and submit their qualifications via the TxDOT eGrants system no later than November 30, 2023 at 2:00 PM Central. A voluntary pre-submittal meeting is scheduled for November 15, 2023. The consultant selection committee will review and rank the qualifications, with the top-rated firm being contacted to begin fee negotiations. The evaluation criteria focus on the consultant's capability, relevant experience, schedule, and technical approach.

The RFQ states that subcontracting opportunities are not probable, but if subcontractors are used, the contractor will be required to complete a Historically Underutilized Business (HUB) Subcontracting Plan and submit monthly reporting on HUB utilization through the eGrants system. TxDOT will administer the project in accordance with federal and state regulations. No incumbent vendors or budget ranges were provided in the RFQ.
