Engineering Services for FY 2026 CDBG Project Implementation

The Town of Crenshaw is seeking qualified firms or individuals to provide comprehensive engineering services for the implementation of its FY 2026 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) projects. The scope includes preparing cost estimates, developing plans and specifications, assisting with bidding and contract execution, conducting pre-construction conferences, and performing construction inspections through project closeout, all in adherence to federal, state, and local regulations. The contract will be fixed-price, with an estimated value ranging from $50,000 to $250,000, and is contingent upon CDBG funding approval and environmental clearances. Proposals are due by December 5, 2025, and will be evaluated based on qualifications, experience, and capacity for performance, with the award going to the highest scoring, most advantageous proposal. The solicitation emphasizes equal opportunity employment and encourages participation from Minority-owned Business Enterprises (MBEs), Woman-owned Business Enterprises (WBEs), and Section 3 eligible businesses, which are targeted to benefit from job training and employment opportunities for lower-income residents. The selection process involves a detailed review by the Town’s Board of Aldermen, with proposals assessed on a points-based system—40 points each for qualifications and experience, and 20 points for capacity—culminating in a best-value award. The contract stipulates adherence to all applicable laws and policies, with the Town reserving the right to reject any or all proposals and to terminate the process at any time. Proposal submissions must include one original and six copies, sealed and clearly marked, to be delivered to the Town Clerk’s office at the specified address before the deadline. The contract will be executed for each project separately, with all services performed under the oversight of the Town of Crenshaw, ensuring compliance and quality throughout the project lifecycle.
