ON-CALL AIRPORT PLANNING SERVICES

The City of Dallas is seeking qualified firms to provide on-call airport planning and advisory services through a solicitation issued under number BXZ26-00030683, posted on July 9, 2026, with proposals due by August 14, 2026. The procurement falls under NAICS code 541620 and is managed by the City’s Department of Aviation, with primary point of contact Ike Umeh. The contract is not structured under federal acquisition regulations; instead, it follows municipal procurement guidelines, particularly the City’s DRIVE Policy, emphasizing local economic inclusion. Proposals will be evaluated on a trade-off basis, weighing non-price factors such as past subcontractor utilization, local workforce engagement, use of local supply chains, documented outreach efforts, and community impact, with points assigned to each. SBE participation is central to the evaluation, requiring vendors to self-certify as locally certified Small Business Enterprises through approved agencies and demonstrate compliance with Commercially Useful Function standards using required forms like BEH-FRM-603.SAW and BEH-FRM-501.PAC. Offerors must submit evidence of good faith efforts to engage SBEs, including payment reports, outreach documentation, and event attendance records, alongside insurance quotes and certificates. The contract requires adherence to environmental regulations including the Clean Air Act and Federal Water Pollution Control Act, with Safety Data Sheets mandatory for hazardous materials, and mandates EEO compliance and affirmative action in hiring. All work must be performed at FOB Dallas delivery sites, with no shipping charges permitted, and the City retains full authority to inspect and accept deliverables. Payment will be processed via electronic funds transfer to a supplier-designated account, with invoices submitted via email to CODAccountsPayable@DallasCityHall.Com and must include delivery order numbers and itemized charges. Contractors must provide a W-9 form, avoid debarred entities, and cannot modify terms orally; all changes require written addenda. Proposals must be submitted by the deadline, and while no electronic portal is specified, submissions are expected to include both digital and paper documentation as required by exhibit forms. There is no stated contract value, and no formal IDIQ or fixed-price structure is defined, indicating the award may lead to task orders or on-call engagements under the overall agreement.
