FY24-26 Engineering Consulting On Call Services
Charlotte Water is soliciting Statements of Qualifications (SOQ) from qualified engineering firms to provide on-call miscellaneous engineering services for various projects. Charlotte Water is seeking firms whose combination of experience and personnel will provide timely, cost-effective, and quality professional services to support these projects.
Various Storm Water Services Projects
Charlotte-Mecklenburg Storm Water Services is requesting proposals from qualified companies interested in providing Professional Engineering Services for Various Storm Water Services Projects. The selected firms will use HEC-HMS, HEC-RAS, SWMM, and/or a hydraulic grade line closed system computer model, or an approved alternative method. All methods will be in accordance with the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Storm Water Design Manual. The City’s then current AutoCAD standards will be used for production of all plans and profiles. The selected company(ies) may be required to pursue stream restoration and enhancement for mitigation credit in accordance with NCDEQ and USACE requirements, where appropriate.
West Ramp Dual Taxi Lanes (Design)
The West Ramp Dual Taxi lanes project at Charlotte Douglas International Airport will provide for the design and construction of dual taxi lanes on the west ramp between taxiways E14 and E15 and includes the realignment of gates on old Concourse A to accommodate future fleet mixes. The following scope is based on planning level analysis and will need to be confirmed through the design. The current taxi lane configuration lacks sufficient bidirectional flow and consists of a single parallel Group V taxi lane supporting each runway and a single Group III taxi lane around the perimeter of the existing terminal apron
Terminal Building D/E Connector Renovations & Addition
The project of renovations of the D/E Connector, starting at the Atrium and encompassing the primary circulation path of the eastern portion of the Passenger Terminal Building to the end of the existing moving walkways and all areas south of that path, up to the Concourse C Connector. The project includes the following:
a) Repositioning the major passenger circulation route of the D/E connector between the Atrium to the end of the moving walkways at the approach of Concourse D;
b) Relocating the airline lounge space from the departure level to an upper-level location while expanding it to 40,000 square feet;
c) Providing a new passenger destination and experience at the departures level that will provide increased financial returns to the airport; and
d) Providing service area at the apron level to help with operations within the DECO area.
Joint Operations Center (Design)
The Joint Operations Center design project at Charlotte Douglas International Airport will modify the existing building (South Cargo 6 – Building 228) to provide for the permanent joint operations facility location. The facility will be multi-functional to accommodate Operations (AOC, AEOC, direct support spaces, and administrative offices) and potential support for CMPD, TSA, and K-9 teams. The facility will be upgraded to the necessary structural upgrades, redundant power backups, fiber optic connections, and security requirements.
Airport Surveillance Radar and Center Lighting Vault Relocation (Design)
The South Ramp Expansion Program for Charlotte Douglas International Airport (also referred to as “CLT,” “Airport,” or “Owner”) consists of the design and construction of a three-phase program targeted to enhance capacity and improve efficiency of the terminal ramp by addressing ramp congestion, improving taxi times and enhancing safety. South Ramp Expansion Phase I will provide unimpeded dual Airplane Design Group (ADG) III and V taxilanes for the southeast area. Phase II will provide continuity of the unimpeded dual ADG III and V taxilanes for the center area of the ramp. The program also provides for the relocations of the Airport Surveillance Radar (ASR) and of the Center Lighting Vault, the two projects that are the subject of this RFQ. Finally, Phase III will complete the linear and unimpeded taxilane connectivity for the southwest corner of the terminal ramp.
This Request for Qualifications will be used to select a Firm to provide the design, construction administration, and related services for the two facility relocation projects within the existing scope of the program as described above. The current program consists of 5 projects, three airfield and two enabling facility relocations, which are listed below:
- South Ramp Expansion Phase 1 (not a subject of this RFQ)
- South Ramp Expansion Phase 2 (not a subject of this RFQ)
- South Ramp Expansion Phase 3 (not a subject of this RFQ)
- Airport Surveillance Radar Relocation (ASR) (the subject of this RFQ)
- Center Airfield Electrical Lighting Vault Relocation (CLV) (the subject of this RFQ)
South Ramp Expansion (Design)
The South Ramp Expansion is proposed to improve the aircraft circulation on the east and west sides of the airfield. In addition, the South Ramp Expansion will facilitate the proposed extensions to Concourse B and Concourse C, and ultimately the development of a satellite concourse.
The following work elements are included in the project:
- South Ramp Expansion, including construction of new connector taxiways to Taxiway C
- Civil sitework to facilitate the expansion of Concourse B and C.
- Tunnel infrastructure (shell only) to serve the future Concourse B and C expansions, and ultimately the development of a satellite concourse.
The selected Final Design Engineer or Engineer of Record (EOR or Consultant) will produce construction documents to be issued for competitive bidding of one or multiple construction packages, followed by conformed or released for construction plans issued to the responsive or responsible bidder for construction. The design and documents are to be based on preliminary design or bridging documents prepared by the Owner’s Master Civil Engineer (Aviation Consulting Engineers, LLC, or ACE). The preliminary design effort will include completion of the design geotechnical subsurface investigation, preliminary design plans to a 30% level of completion, pavement design, and preliminary surveys. Final design surveys, including pavement tie-ins, etc. will be the responsibility of the Consultant.
