Vintage Views Wastewater Treatment Plant Option Analysis and Preliminary Design

The Regional District of Okanagan-Similkameen is inviting qualified professionals to submit proposals for conducting an options analysis and developing preliminary design concepts for a phased upgrade of the Vintage Views Wastewater Treatment Plant. The goal is to evaluate multiple technical and operational approaches to modernize the facility, with an emphasis on innovation that enhances efficiency, sustainability, and long-term value for the regional community. Respondents are expected to deliver a clear, structured assessment of viable upgrade pathways followed by preliminary designs that align with the district’s operational needs and regulatory requirements. The initiative seeks solutions that not only meet current standards but also anticipate future demands and environmental considerations. Proposals must be submitted through the RDOS Bonfire portal by the deadline of May 29, 2026, and should be guided by the solicitation number BCRFP-RDOS-26-Wastewater_Services-079. The contract is issued under the Broader Public Sector and is managed by Michael Ummenhofer, the designated Contracting Authority, who can be contacted via email for inquiries. While the listing references a federal government portal, the project is locally managed by the Regional District and aims to serve residents in the Okanagan-Similkameen region. The opportunity encourages creative, cost-effective, and resilient design strategies that add measurable value beyond basic compliance.
