The Town of Osyka, Mississippi, is soliciting proposals from qualified firms or individuals to provide comprehensive engineering services for the implementation of its approved FY 2026 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) projects. The work scope includes preparation of cost estimates, design and bid documents, assistance during contract execution, pre-construction conferences, construction inspection, and project closeout reporting in compliance with federal, state, and local regulations. This fixed-price contract, based on the CDBG Program fee scale, will be awarded to the most qualified offeror whose proposal achieves the highest cumulative score under a best-value trade-off evaluation considering qualifications, experience, and capacity for performance. The Town strongly encourages Minority-Owned, Woman-Owned, and Section 3 eligible businesses to participate. Proposal submissions in sealed envelopes are due by January 6, 2026, to the Office of the Town Clerk in Osyka. Evaluation criteria weigh qualifications and experience heavily, with 40 points each, while capacity for performance accounts for 20 points out of 100. The selected engineer will be responsible not only for design and bid phases but also for ongoing construction oversight, including inspections, reporting, and approval of contractor payment requests. Performance and contract award are contingent upon CDBG funding availability and resolution of any environmental conditions. While formal FAR clauses and contract attachments are not provided, the solicitation mandates adherence to all applicable laws and CDBG requirements throughout contract execution. No electronic proposal submissions or payment details are included; all communications and deliverables are managed through the Town Clerk’s office. The contract does not specify option periods or security clearances and emphasizes ethical compliance and adherence to federal program standards.
