BD26-XX Pre-Qualified Design Professional Services Pre-Qualified Vendor List

The State of Utah Division of Purchasing is issuing solicitation BD26-XX to establish an open-ended pre-qualified vendor list for Design Professional Services. This initiative seeks firms capable of providing architectural and engineering expertise for projects including construction, reclamation, and environmental clean-up, with a specific focus on project sizes up to 100,000 dollars. Approved vendors will be pre-qualified for a period of 12 months, after which they must resubmit qualifications for renewal. The State maintains the right to reopen the solicitation to allow additional vendors to apply at any time, provided it occurs at least every twelve months. The selection process involves a two-stage review consisting of an initial responsiveness check followed by a technical criteria evaluation based on a pass/fail system. Interested firms must identify their specific areas of expertise, such as civil, electrical, or environmental engineering, and comply with mandatory vendor certifications and professional conduct standards. Submissions must include both redacted and non-redacted versions of the proposal to comply with the Government Records and Management Act regarding business confidentiality. The deadline for responses is September 7, 2026, and the place of performance is within the State of Utah.
