SECTION 1 – NOTICE OF REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL
A. Introduction
The City of Portland, Texas, is soliciting proposals from qualified firms to perform a citywide
pavement condition assessment and potential right-of-way asset survey. The City seeks to
leverage the most current technologies to collect, analyze, and report on roadway conditions in
accordance with ASTM D6433 standards, as well as to assess additional right-of-way assets. The
survey will cover approximately 180 centerline miles of roadway within the 9,717-acre city limits
of Portland, located in San Patricio County, Texas. The primary deliverable is a pavement
condition survey that is used to produce Pavement Condition Index (PCI) scores and
recommended maintenance/rehabilitation actions. The City also desires additive alternate
proposals for assessments of right-of-way assets (curb and gutter, sidewalks, and roadway signs)
and pavement management software. Proposed software must support open data export, have
a clearly defined licensing structure, identify annual costs, integrate with ESRI GIS systems, and
include user dashboards and reporting tools. The City reserves the right to award the Base Bid
and any combination of Additive Alternate Bids (A, B, C, and D) based on available funding and
overall value to the City.
