REQUEST FOR STATEMENT OF
QUALIFICATIONS
Various Professional Consultant Services
THIS IS NOT AN ORDER
ADVERTISED SOQ: 2024-2026 Professional Consultant Services
RELEASE DATE: February 13, 2024
Carson City invites consulting firms to submit Statements of Qualifications (SOQs) for
Professional Consultant Services to support various public infrastructure and facility projects
that are anticipated over the next few years. SOQs shall be submitted in accordance with the
Documents and Requirements as set forth in the formal "Request for Statement of
Qualifications."
SOQ DOCUMENTS may be obtained from the Carson City website https://www.carson.org/Bids
SOQs will only be accepted via online submissions through the Nevada Government Electronic
Marketplace (NGEM) site, https://nevada.ionwave.net/
by no later than 2:00 pm on March 12, 2024.
RECOMMENDATION FOR SELECTION will be made by the Public Works Department
based on the evaluation results of the City Review and Selection Committee. Once the
committee has established Ranked and Unranked lists for each service category, the results
will be posted on the City’s website www.carson.org/bids. Ranked and Unranked lists will be
displayed in alphabetical order by firm name. Selection for a Ranked or Unranked service
category does not guarantee any particular future contract(s).
FINAL SELECTION will be made by the Public Works Director for Carson City.
1
INTRODUCTION (General Information)
1.1 The intent of this request is to establish an on-call list of qualified consulting firms for
various disciplines for 2024 through 2026 to support various public infrastructure and
facility projects that are programmed over the next two years. The list may be utilized
beyond 2026 at the discretion of the City Engineer. The professional service contracts
resulting from this request will only be used on local or State funded projects. All
Federally funded projects will require separate request for proposals (RFPs) for
professional services. In accordance with Nevada Revised Statute 625.530, Carson City
utilizes a qualifications-based selection process for the procurement of professional
services. The SOQ process helps the City to expedite the implementation of projects on
our capital improvement plan.
The SOQs are requested for the various service categories described in Section 3.
These service categories consist of both Ranked and Unranked categories. Ranked
categories include professional services that the City anticipates using on planned
projects over the next two years. Unranked categories include professional services
for which the City does not currently have potential projects identified, however the
need for these projects and support services may arise in the future.
Projects may be assigned in several different ways:
• An individual project may be assigned to one of the qualified consulting firms
on the Ranked list for the service category.
• A qualified consulting firm from the Unranked list may be selected by the City
from the appropriate service category based on their respective project
experience and qualifications.
• At least three qualified consulting firms from a service category may be invited
to participate in a request for approach process or participate in a short
interview to determine which firm’s qualifications and experience best match
the project requirements.
• The City may issue a separate RFP and solicit responses for individual
projects from all interested firms nationwide, independent of the established
SOQ lists.
1.2 A City Review and Selection Committee created for this specific purpose will evaluate
the SOQs submitted.
1.3 During evaluation, the City Review and Selection Committee reserves the right, where
it may serve the City's best interest, to request additional information or clarification
from the consulting firm, or to allow corrections of errors or omissions. Oral interviews
may be conducted by the City Review and Selection Committee.
1.4 Submission of a SOQ indicates acceptance by the consulting firm of the conditions
contained in this Request for Statement of Qualifications.
1.5 The use of the term "firm" refers to consultant firms with certified personnel, doing
business in the United States and duly registered in the state of Nevada with business
license paid to the Consolidated Municipality of Carson City after selection of the firm.
Depending on the type of project, the City may accept one or more firms teaming up
for joint venture with a Nevada-based firm to prepare the required services, but the
City will recognize such a consortium as a single entity only with one juridical
personality.
1.6 There is no expressed or implied intent or obligation for Carson City to reimburse
responding firms for any expenses incurred in preparing the SOQs as well as travel
expenses during interviews in response to this Request for Statement of
Qualifications.
