AI Contract Overview
The contract involves a qualification-based, on-call professional services arrangement between Granville County, North Carolina, and multiple qualified firms capable of providing engineering, grant administration, architectural, and related consulting services. Selected firms will support a broad spectrum of county projects, including planning, design, review, inspection, and project management, on an as-needed basis without guaranteed minimum workload.

The selection process prioritizes experience, qualifications, project approach, and thoroughness, with a weighted scoring system.

Federal and state regulations, including compliance with 2 C.F.R. Part 200, Appendix II, conflict of interest policies, and anti-lobbying statutes, are incorporated by reference, ensuring that all work adheres to applicable legal and administrative standards. The contract emphasizes professional standards, quality assurance, and compliance, with no explicit delivery or inspection locations specified, relying instead on County review and approval processes. Proposals must be submitted electronically by August 8, 2025, in PDF format, with clear markings for confidential information, and include necessary affidavits and certifications. Overall, the agreement is designed to provide flexible, professional support for County projects over multiple years, with a focus on qualifications, compliance, and equitable participation.

Full Description
The County is soliciting proposals to contract with one or more firms capable of providing general on-call engineering, grant administration, and other professional services for the County. Qualified firms that can demonstrate experience working with North Carolina's local governments are encouraged to respond. Services to be conducted on an on-call basis could include engineering services, state and federal grant administration services, bidding and construction services, and other activities noted in this RFQ's scope of work. Proposers must be licensed in North Carolina and be members in good standing within their respective professional licensing organizations. The County encourages proposals submitted by small, minority, veteran-owned and woman-owned firms. Firms that do not have all services in house may include subcontractors who will be part of their project team in their response. The County anticipates additional growth over the next three to five years, and beyond, therefore needing on-call services.
Contracts for services shall be negotiated on the basis of demonstrated competence and qualifications.
Engineering services intended to support the County under this contract will be provided on an “as needed and as requested basis” for a broad range of projects. The On-Call Services Contracts awarded as a result of the RFQ shall not guarantee a specific amount of work to any firm.
The County reserves the right to make multiple awards from this solicitation and/or utilize other providers for specific engineering services. All necessary staffing, management, supervision, materials, equipment, and supplies shall be provided by the firm(s) to complete the identified services.
Each firm selected under this RFQ will be eligible for an initial term of three (3) years from the date of selection. The County has the sole option to extend the selected firm(s) term for one (1) additional three (3) year term. Therefore, the maximum length of time that a selected firm is eligible to complete work under this RFQ is six (6) years. However, the County reserves the right to cancel this RFQ at any time and solicit new responses. Firms that do not meet the County’s performance expectations, routinely decline opportunities to participate in this program, or lose significant internal expertise submitted with the original response may be removed from the County qualified consultant list.
