Qualified respondents will be scored based on experience and ability to perform (35 percent), firm resources and staff qualifications (35 percent), approach and methodology (20 percent), and references (10 percent). Submissions must be received by 3:00 p.m. CST on October 28, 2026, and must include several notarized affidavits and certifications, including House Bill 89 and SB 252 certifications. The successful contractor must maintain professional liability and general liability insurance of 1,000,000 dollars and adhere to net 30 payment terms.
