Ongoing and Emerging Minor Storm Drainage Improvement Projects

The City of Charlotte, North Carolina, has issued a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) seeking Professional Engineering Services to support Ongoing and Emerging Minor Storm Drainage Improvement Projects within the state. This solicitation, identified as FY27-RFQ-03 and posted on June 4, 2026, invites qualified firms to submit Statements of Qualifications (SOQs) through the City’s electronic procurement platform, the Bonfire Portal, by June 25, 2026. The scope revolves around engineering expertise to address minor storm drainage infrastructure needs, although detailed technical specifications, specific project deliverables, or regulatory standards are not provided in the excerpted materials. The solicitation emphasizes a qualifications-based selection process focused on the evaluation of experience, technical approach, and past performance, without providing explicit evaluation criteria or contract pricing details. No contract clauses, special requirements, or socio-economic set-asides appear in the available documentation, and the contract type remains unspecified, consistent with an SOQ procurement prior to formal award. Submission is exclusively electronic, with no paper proposals accepted, and questions must be directed through the Bonfire Vendor Discussions portal. The Place of Performance is North Carolina, with the City of Charlotte acting as the contracting authority, but specific administrative details—such as payment offices, invoicing methods, inspection procedures, or contract administration contacts—are not disclosed. Overall, this RFQ serves as an initial step to pre-qualify engineering firms for future task orders centered on stormwater infrastructure improvements within Charlotte and its environs.
