2027-020 Stream Restoration and Environmental Professional Services

The County of Roanoke is soliciting proposals for an on-call contract to provide stream restoration and environmental professional services within Virginia and surrounding areas. This procurement follows the competitive negotiation process outlined in Va. Code § 2.2-4302.2(A)(4), where the county ranks qualified offerors based on professional qualifications, capacity, skill, and past performance rather than initial pricing. Consequently, offerors are prohibited from submitting binding hourly rates, man-hour estimates, or total costs during the initial proposal phase; these financial details and the final scope of services will be negotiated only with the highest-ranked offerors. The selection process emphasizes responsiveness, the absence of conflicts of interest, and the ability to deliver services in a timely manner. Successful consultants must provide various deliverables, including constructible original plan sheets with certification seals, AutoCAD drawings, and detailed project calculations. Payment is structured by project phase and is contingent upon the owner's approval and the submission of written progress reports. The final deadline for proposal submission was extended via addenda to October 6, 2026, with all submissions required to be made through eVA, mail, or hand delivery.
