AI overview

West County Wastewater District (WCW) is issuing a Request for Proposals (RFP) to solicit qualified firms to provide on-call district engineer-equivalent consulting services for its Infrastructure and Planning Department. The selected consultant will serve as WCW's primary technical engineering advisor, performing professional engineering services on a task-order basis under the direction of the General Manager or designee. Services will include administrative oversight, strategic leadership, technical review, mentorship, emergency response, and capital project support, all in compliance with applicable federal, state, and local regulations. The contract, if approved by WCW's Board of Directors, will be for a three-year base term with up to two additional one-year option terms.

Key dates for this solicitation include a Q&A deadline of August 11, 2026, and a proposal submission deadline of September 4, 2026. All proposals must be submitted electronically through WCW's eProcurement Portal (OpenGov Procurement). Questions must also be submitted in writing through the same portal. Proposals will not be accepted after the deadline, and incomplete or non-conforming proposals may be rejected at WCW's sole discretion. Issuance of this RFP does not obligate WCW to award a contract, and WCW is not liable for any costs incurred by proposers in preparing their submissions.

The scope of services encompasses a wide range of engineering tasks related to WCW's wastewater infrastructure, which includes 249 miles of gravity sewer pipelines, 17 lift stations, 6 miles of pressurized force mains, and a water quality resource recovery plant with a 12.5 million gallons per day permitted capacity. The selected consultant will provide on-call support for various infrastructure and planning initiatives, ensuring alignment with WCW's operational needs and regulatory requirements. Proposers must submit a comprehensive response including a proposal cover form, references, a cost proposal, and a Levine Act statement, as detailed in the attachments.

Evaluation will be based on criteria detailed in the RFP, and the highest-ranked proposer will be selected for contract negotiations. The submission of a proposal constitutes a firm offer binding for 180 days. Task orders will be issued on a Specified Rate of Compensation basis, and the agreement includes provisions for revised proposals, interviews, and negotiations as part of the selection process.
