On Call Construction Management Services (Multiyear Contract)

The contract seeks on-call construction management (CM) services to support DeKalb County’s Department of Watershed Management (DWM) in Georgia, which serves nearly 735,000 residents and is one of the largest water and wastewater utilities in the region. These CM services will facilitate the execution of various projects under the County’s $4.27 billion Capital Improvement Program (CIP) aimed at maintaining and upgrading critical water and sewer infrastructure. Projects anticipated during 2026–2030 include water and sewer line replacements, pump stations, storage tanks, and treatment facility improvements to ensure reliable, long-term service delivery. The construction management activities will complement the ongoing program management provided by a separate entity, Program Management Consultants, which oversees the overall CIP but does not cover CM services directly. This solicitation, issued by DeKalb County Purchasing and Contracting, invites qualified firms to provide multiyear, on-call CM services. The contract emphasizes coordination with the CIP Program Management Team to assure smooth execution of the infrastructure projects. Additionally, contractors must comply with the DeKalb County First Source Jobs Ordinance, which mandates a good faith effort to ensure at least 50% of new jobs created under the contract are filled by County residents. This includes specific reporting and tracking responsibilities as outlined in ordinance forms. The solicitation was posted in January 2026 with a response deadline in March 2026 and aims to support the continued investment in the County’s vital water and sewer systems.
