The San Joaquin County Department of Public Works (SJCDPW) is soliciting qualifications from land surveying (LS) firms. These firms are being sought to offer professional and technical services catering to various land surveying needs on an as-needed basis, supporting diverse design and construction projects across San Joaquin County. Professional services must be conducted under the supervision of a Licensed Land Surveyor registered in California. These services may involve topographic and right-of-way surveys for design initiatives, as well as staking and project layout for construction projects. Design and construction projects encompass a variety of undertakings, including resurfacing, roadway reconstruction and widening, bridge replacement, scour mitigation (involving channel surveying), and embankment repairs. SJCDPW intends to establish a list of up to four (4) LS consulting firms. Each selected (CONSULTANT) will be retained to provide CM services on an “on-call” basis, and a Purchase Agreement will be executed with each CONSULTANT. Selection to the On-Call List does not guarantee any minimum number or dollar value of assignments. The aggregate value of assignments authorized for any individual CONSULTANT shall not exceed $200,000 per fiscal year. Fixed unit pricing and the not-to-exceed amount will be established for each assignment. The method of payment for each assignment will be based on actual cost plus a fixed fee. The method of procurement for CONSULTANTS will be an open and competitive process and will document and support the justification for the selection. The established “On-call” list will be in effect for a two-year period with the option of SJCDPW to extend the period for one (1) additional year. A CONSULTANT has the option of using subconsultants, with the approval of the County, for the following: • 3D-Modeling of collected surveying data • Traffic control to facilitate the survey work In accordance with the law, the CONSULTANT shall not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, or sex in the award or performance of subcontracts. SJCDPW’s Consultant Procurement staff will facilitate the consultant selection process for SJCDPW. SJCDPW’s Field Engineering Division will direct specific project assignments, provide project management, and authorize payments to the CONSULTANT. All work will be performed, and work product will be prepared in accordance with County of San Joaquin standards as well as applicable Local, State, and Federal requirements.
