ENGINEERING SERVICES
INTRODUCTION
Washington County Water Conservancy District (district) is a water conservancy district
organized and existing under the Utah Water Conservancy District Act. The district is
seeking statements of qualifications from qualified design professionals to provide design and
construction management for the replacement of a 10” potable water pipeline approximately
11,000 feet long (procurement item). The following contains information relating to the
procurement item required and describes the criteria and selection process the district will
use to select a design professional and negotiate a satisfactory contract at a price fair and
reasonable to the district.
STATEMENT OF QUALIFICATIONS SUBMISSION
Statements of qualifications must be received by the district no later than Friday
March 27th 2026 5:00 pm see SOQ Timeline below. The statement of qualifications must be
submitted in portable document format (PDF) via email to dinah@wcwcd.gov. The email must
clearly identify: 1) Name of design professional, 2) Contact information of design professional,
and 3) that it contains a STATEMENT OF QUALIFICATIONS FOR ENGINEERING
SERVICES. The district assumes no responsibility for delays or other failures, whether
caused by internet or system failure or any other event.
AGREEMENT
The district’s Agreement, which includes its standard terms and conditions, is attached and
incorporated as Exhibit A. Any exceptions to the terms, conditions, or requirements found in
the Agreement must be submitted with the design professional’s statement of qualifications.
Such exceptions will be considered in the evaluation and award process. The district shall be
the sole determiner of the acceptability of any exception. The district reserves the right to
modify the Agreement prior to execution.
The district’s Request for Statements of Qualifications does not obligate the district to award
any contract or to pay any costs incurred in the preparation of a statement of qualifications,
interview, or associated material
Renewal Conditions
The Agreement may not continue or be renewed for any year after the first year of the
contract if adequate funds are not appropriated or otherwise available to continue or renew
the Agreement.
UTAH GOVERNMENT RECORDS ACCESS AND MANAGEMENT ACT
The district is subject to the Utah Government Records Access and Management Act, Utah
Code Ann. § 63G-2-101, et. seq. (GRAMA). All statements of qualifications are ordinarily
public documents once an award is made. A design professional who desires to request
protected status of any information submitted in the statement of qualifications is
responsible to understand and implement any protection provided by GRAMA. The district
will not be bound by any instructions contained in a statement of qualifications, but rather,
will only be governed by GRAMA and district GRAMA policies. Below is the information and
process regarding how to submit a request for Business Confidentiality with your submission.
BUSINESS CONFIDENTIALITY
In accordance with State Law, all files submitted in response to a procurement (Bids,
SOQs, RFPs, etc..) are a public record and are subject to public review upon request.
However, a vendor may request that portions of their submission containing trade secrets
or certain commercial or financial information identified in Utah Code §63G-2-305(1)-( 2)
be classified as a protected record by complying with Utah Code §63G-2-309(1). Protected
records are not generally available to the public except under certain circumstances.
To request the protected classification, the firm must provide the District with a written
claim of business confidentiality indicating what parts of their submission it would like to
be classified as protected, along with a concise statement of reasons supporting the claim of
business confidentiality. The district provides the WCWCD Claim of Business
Confidentiality form for this purpose.
If making a claim of business confidentiality, submission should include a set of unredacted
files and a set of redacted files, with the confidentiality form (attached). Please note that
the submission cannot be fully redacted. Washington County Water Conservancy District
will not redact a proposal on behalf of a claimant if they fail to upload a redacted copy of
their proposal.
Follow the directions in the procurement notice to submit your files in response to the
procurement.
CERTIFICATION
By submitting a statement of qualifications, the design professional certifies that it has read
and understands the documents provided, has become familiar with the conditions which
might directly or indirectly affect provision of the procurement item, has identified any
questions or concerns regarding provision of the procurement item, and has ensured that all
questions are fully clarified.
