I. Overview
A. INVITATION
The City of Moore completed a water master plan in 2023 that provides a roadmap of water
system improvements for future growth. Due to high velocities through the Eastern Avenue OKC
Meter under future demands and the inability to upsize the meter due to the increase in OKC
water rates, the addition of a 24” transmission main from NE 12 Street OKC Meter to the Eastern
Avenue Pump Station and SE 19th Street was identified in the water master plan to improve
system performance.
The City is seeking qualifications from professional engineering firms to prepare plans and
specifications for the 24” transmission line and adjoining cross street waterline tie-ins. This
project will be designed with matching federal EPA funding and will require compliance with
EPA, ODEQ, and City of Moore design standards.
B. PROPOSAL DEADLINE
Proposers shall submit one (1) original in digital format, and five (5) hard copies. The proposal
must be clearly marked as RFQ #2027-003, “Engineering Services for the Eastern Avenue 24 inch
Transmission Line from the NE 12th Street OKC Meter to the Eastern Avenue Pump Station and SE
19th St.” and delivered to:
City of Moore Purchasing Department
301 N. Broadway Ave. Suite 142
Moore, OK 73160
No later than 11:00 AM CST, Wednesday, September 16, 2026. Proposals received after the

The City of Moore is an equal opportunity employer.

plans, specifications, and related documents for the installation of a 24-inch water transmission
line that will support a planned future expansion of the City’s Eastern Avenue water pump
station.

The transmission line will be designed to accommodate anticipated future system demands and
convey increased flows generated by the planned pump station expansion. The design shall
ensure compatibility with the future pump station discharge configuration and provide sufficient
capacity for long-term system reliability.
The Consultant will coordinate with City staff and incorporate available planning documents,
hydraulic studies, and conceptual pump station expansion plans to ensure the transmission line
design is compatible with future infrastructure improvements.
The consultant will prepare a preliminary analysis and develop a conceptual alignment for the
transmission line that will be reviewed and approved by the City. Following approval of the
preliminary design, the consultant shall prepare complete construction documents for the
project. The consultant will also prepare project specifications suitable for inclusion in the City’s
bid documents for construction and a construction cost estimate that will include construction
costs, contingencies, and other relevant project costs. The consultant will prepare permits and
