Consulting Support Services

The City of Anaheim Department of Public Works is soliciting qualified technical professional firms to establish an on-call pool for consulting support services under an indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) framework. The contract, solicited under number 20260717001 with a proposal deadline of August 18, 2026, will provide architectural design, construction management, contract administration, inspection, and project close-out services for capital improvement, maintenance, and private developer projects across the city. Services span multiple disciplines including constructability reviews, resident engineering, environmental consulting, and web-based document management, and are expected to support infrastructure projects such as paving, sewer, storm drain, water systems, traffic signals, and building construction. The contract term runs through June 30, 2030, with the possibility of two one-year renewals, allowing for a maximum duration of 24 months beyond the initial period. Work will be issued through individual Request for Work Order Proposals on an as-needed, short-notice basis with no guaranteed minimum or maximum value, and performance may occur at city offices, construction sites, remotely, or in hybrid arrangements. Firms must submit a single electronic PDF proposal not exceeding 40 content pages, including required exhibits and fee schedules that list only labor classifications and hourly rates without disclosing individual compensation details. Proposals must include resumes for proposed key personnel—limited to one page per individual—along with organizational charts and summaries of three relevant prior projects per sub-discipline. Evaluation will focus on technical merit through seven factors, with five weighted equally at two points each, emphasizing consultant competency, personnel qualifications, prior experience with municipalities, proposed methodologies, and key personnel involvement. Cost and reference checks are considered qualitatively without point weighting, supporting a trade-off award approach rather than lowest price technically acceptable. Special requirements include strict conflict-of-interest rules prohibiting dual representation on the same project, adherence to the Community Workforce Agreement for inspection roles, compliance with California building and environmental codes, and strict invoicing rules that require itemized, project-specific billing. Consultants must be prepared to obtain city-issued badges and email access for on-site work but are not required to undergo formal security clearances. The agreement allows the city broad flexibility to suspend, modify, bundle, or add projects without limitation, and the solicitation does not require UEI, CAGE codes, or small business certifications, though local hire and DBE participation goals may apply depending on project funding.
