RFQ Trumbull Bike-Ped Blueprint

The Connecticut Metropolitan Council of Governments (MetroCOG) is soliciting professional services for the Trumbull Bicycle and Pedestrian Blueprint. This 12-month project aims to develop a comprehensive non-vehicular transportation network for the Town of Trumbull, focusing on safety, feasibility, and sustainability. Key deliverables include a baseline conditions evaluation, a GIS inventory and mapping of existing facilities, a public-facing printable map, a gap analysis of infrastructure, and two levels of traffic stress assessments. The project will build upon existing local and regional planning documents, including the Town of Trumbull's POCD and MetroCOG's Regional Complete Streets Policy. Selection will be based on a Qualifications Based Selection (QBS) process, with responses evaluated equally across four categories: qualifications and experience in non-vehicular infrastructure, project approach, organization and staff commitment, and the overall quality of the response. Interested consultants must submit a letter of interest, a technical response, a current Federal Form SF-330 Part II, and a signed Debarment Certification Form by December 4, 2026. Submissions must include two paper copies and one digital copy on a USB flash drive. The successful consultant will enter into a Professional Services Agreement with total compensation to be negotiated. The contract is subject to federal requirements, including 2 CFR Part 200 cost principles and mandatory clauses such as Title VI/EEO. Required insurance coverages include $1,000,000 for Professional Liability/E&O and $1,000,000 for Umbrella Liability, with MetroCOG named as an additional insured. Payment will be made via monthly invoices detailing the percentage of work completed for each task, with a payment term of 30 days after receipt of undisputed invoices.
