ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING SERVICES FOR SAFER GRATIOT PILOT

The City of Detroit Office of Contracting and Procurement, on behalf of the Department of Public Works, is soliciting proposals for architectural and engineering services to support the Safer Gratiot Pilot. This five-year, firm fixed price contract encompasses a broad scope of technical and professional services, including planning, engineering, design, environmental review, community engagement, project management, data analysis, surveying, and construction oversight. The project is structured around six primary functional tasks: project management, community engagement, data collection and analysis, planning and environmental review, preliminary engineering and final design, and construction administration. Qualified respondents must provide a comprehensive proposal including a detailed solution and approach, a preliminary project schedule with completion dates, and a description of technical procedures. Evaluation criteria focus on the firm's ability to manage a project of similar size and scope, requiring at least three professional references from the last five years. Applicants must submit an organization chart and resumes for key personnel, a respondent questionnaire, and a pricing proposal broken down by task, hours, and hourly rates. Additionally, the City requires disclosures regarding debarment, experience with the City of Detroit, and a willingness to sign a Priority Hire Agreement to prioritize the employment of Detroit residents.
