REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS FOR CDBG-DR ENGINEERING SERVICES

The City of Douglas is requesting qualifications and proposals for selection of an Engineering Firm to provide pre- and post-award services for a CDBG-DR Project. Pre- and post-award services will include, but are not limited to, preparing preliminary engineering report, planning, design, cost estimating, bidding, contracting, construction oversight, quality control, and project closeout. As a basic service, all engineering contracts will also include obtaining and maintaining all Build America Buy America (BABA) documentation (particularly manufacturer¿s certifications) during construction, which shall be transferred to the grant recipient. The engineer will need to certify to this action at the end of the project. The City is in dire need of Public Infrastructure Improvements, including, but not limited to, water, sewer, street paving, and/or drainage, and is considering applying for federal and/or state funding for Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR), Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Annual Competition, Employee Incentive Program (EIP), Redevelopment Fund (RDF), and/or Immediate Threat and Danger (ITAD) funds through the Georgia Department of Community Affairs (DCA).
