INTRODUCTION

The Marin County Department of Public Works Engineering Division seeks Statements

of Qualifications (SOQs) from interested contractors for services related to revegetation

landscaping for unincorporated Marin County road and bridge related projects. County

road and bridge projects often require mitigation plantings and subsequent maintenance

and watering. Given the regularity and number of projects, the County is seeking an on-

call list of contractors to perform this work. The selected contractor(s) shall be capable of

completing this work at various sites.

Types of services needed are described in the Scope of Work below. The County will

select one or more contractor(s) with which to execute a General Services Contract for

upcoming “on-call” work. Each selected contractor on the on-call list may have the

opportunity to submit proposals for specific projects. Task Orders for each project will be

issued to selected Contractors by County Project Managers, and proposals must be

approved by the County Project Manager before work begins. Proposals are to include

Scope, Schedule, Deliverables and Cost Estimate for completion of each task. Execution

of the General Services Contract by a contractor and the submission of proposals for task

orders does not guarantee the award of any task orders. The contract(s) shall remain

active for a period of three (3) years with a total program budget of $200,000 to be made

available to the selected firms on a shared basis. Services will be provided on an as-

needed basis and the anticipated cost of each on-call task will likely fall within the range

of $5,000- $40,000.

The statement of qualifications (SOQ) submitted in response to this RFQ will be used as

a basis for selecting the Contractor(s) for this on-call list. The Contractor’s SOQ will be

evaluated and ranked according to the criteria provided in Appendix B, “Evaluation

Criteria,” of this RFQ.

Addenda to this RFQ, if issued, will be posted on the County of Marin website at:

https://www.marincounty.org/depts/pw/bids-and-proposals.

It shall be the Contractor’s responsibility to check the County of Marin website to obtain

any addenda that may be issued.

The Contractor’s attention is directed to Appendix A, “Statement of Qualifications

Requirements.”

SOQ packages shall be submitted electronically in PDF format. The complete package

shall be emailed to DPWEngineering@marincounty.org prior to 4:00 P.M., Wednesday

November 8, 2023. The email head shall read “SOQ for On-Call Revegetation

Landscaping Services.” The SOQ email shall include two (2) PDF documents, both with

the firm’s name included in the file name.

Document 1: SOQ – Firm Name

Document 2: Rate Sheet – Firm Name

Unsigned SOQs or SOQs signed by an individual not authorized to bind the prospective

Contractor will be considered nonresponsive and rejected.

This RFQ does not commit the County of Marin to award a contract, to pay any costs

incurred in the preparation of a SOQ for this request, or to procure or contract for services.

The County of Marin reserves the right to accept or reject any or all SOQs received as a

result of this request, to negotiate with any qualified Contractor, or to modify or cancel in

part or in its entirety the RFQ if it is in the best interests of the County of Marin to do so.

The prospective Contractor is advised that should this RFQ result in recommendation for

award of a contract, the contract will not be in force until it is approved and fully executed

by the County of Marin.

All products used or developed in the execution of any contract resulting from this RFQ

will remain in the public domain at the completion of the contract.

The anticipated schedule for selection of contractor(s) is as follows:
