2026 Flood Engineering Assessments

Sturgeon County is soliciting proposals under solicitation number 2026-135 for engineering consulting services to support its 2027 Operations and Maintenance construction program. The project involves producing Issue for Tender and, if necessary, Issue for Construction documents for forty-one municipal drainage locations, including services such as engineering drainage assessments, LiDAR elevation area capture, and topo, plan, and profile work. The scope is divided into four separate bundles, and proponents may bid on one, multiple, or all bundles. The County may award these bundles to a single or multiple proponents based on evaluation results, capacity, and mandatory qualifications. Proposals must be submitted electronically via the Sturgeon County e-submission portal by November 3, 2026, at 2:00 PM local time. The selection process is based on rated criteria, including corporate profile, relevant experience with drainage projects, and quality management approaches, though the County may select a proponent other than the lowest cost bidder. Awarded consultants must maintain significant insurance coverage, including five million dollars in comprehensive general liability, two million dollars in professional services liability, and two million dollars in automobile insurance. The contract is governed by custom standard terms and conditions rather than federal FAR clauses, featuring a 30-day payment term upon receipt of acceptable invoices. Performance is subject to a supplier evaluation scorecard, and the supplier is responsible for all quality assurance and any necessary corrections at their own expense.
