VARIOUS ENGINEERING SERVICES

The City of Weslaco, Texas is soliciting Statements of Qualifications (SOQs) from professional engineering firms to establish a rotation list for various engineering services related to public infrastructure and capital improvement projects. The procurement seeks to create four distinct service categories: General Civil & Public Infrastructure Engineering, Water and Wastewater Engineering, Traffic & Environmental Engineering, and Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) Engineering. Firms must submit their qualifications using Standard Form 330 (SF330), with a maximum of 20 pages, clearly indicating the specific service category or categories they are applying for. The evaluation process will score submissions based on six key criteria: Relevant Experience and Past Performance (30 points), Key Personnel Qualifications (20 points), Team Organization and Capacity (15 points), Technical Capability and Specialized Services (15 points), Understanding of Local Conditions and Requirements (15 points), and Commitment to On-Call Services (5 points). Key dates include a pre-qualification Zoom conference on July 31, 2025, at 10:00 AM, and the RFQ submission deadline on August 20, 2025, at 10:00 AM, with the City Commission planning to award contracts to top-rated firms on September 2, 2025.

The contract will be valid for two years, with the potential for a one-year extension contingent on satisfactory performance. Firms must maintain professional liability insurance coverage of $1,000,000 per claim and aggregate, and comply with local government disclosure requirements, including House Bill 1295 regarding interested parties. While the RFQ does not explicitly mention set-aside designations or specific restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises, firms of all sizes are encouraged to apply. The document does not provide specific information about incumbent vendors or existing infrastructure requirements. Although no precise award value or budget range is specified, the solicitation suggests multiple firms may be selected for the rotation list across the four engineering service categories, indicating potential for ongoing project-based work. Interested engineering firms should carefully review the full RFQ document and prepare comprehensive submissions that demonstrate their capabilities across the specified service categories.
