On each District Project, the engineer will be expected to perform the scope of services described in the

engineer must execute. Any statement of qualifications and proposal submitted in response to this RFQ

must be based on the scope of services, obligations, and other terms of this RFQ and the attached engineer

agreement.

If a proposing firm would like to suggest any edits to the agreement form, they must be submitted at least

10 calendar days ahead of the proposal deadline to allow the District time to consider the suggestion and,

if a revision is made, issue an addendum to all proposing firms. No proposed edits will be considered after

this deadline or after submittal of proposals.

4. Statement Format and Content

If an engineer has any questions other than questions about the form of agreement (see above), it must

submit them at least seven (7) calendar days before the proposals are due to allow the District to review

and decide whether to issue an addendum to the RFQ.

The statement of qualifications should be clear, concise, complete, well organized, and demonstrate re-

spondent’s ability to follow instructions.
