The Engineering Services Division of the Department of General Services (GS) is soliciting Statements of Qualifications (SOQ) from qualified engineering companies (Company) to provide the following three main components for this solicitation and interested parties may choose to be considered for any or all:
• Embedded Consultant Project Management staff: Primary responsibilities include reviewing project deliverables and the overall project management duties as normally performed by city Project Managers. The consultant must certify designs as a North Carolina Professional Engineer or defer this to the project engineer. QA/QC staff should have experience in designing and preparing construction plans for transportation projects and will oversee the work of Project Engineers and/or consultant designers on assigned projects and be directly responsible for ensuring projects are delivered on-schedule and within the allocated budget.
• Embedded Project Engineer staff: Primarily responsible for completing designs for an average of 4-10 projects per year, depending on size and scope. They will be the engineer of record for designs of varying sizes and will report directly to city or consultant Project Management Staff.
• Miscellaneous Planning and Design Services: The City of Charlotte is seeking assistance from qualified Transportation Consulting firms to provide transportation planning and transportation engineering on “on-call” basis. The on-call contract will provide a flexible and effective way for the city to respond to recurring consultant service needs covering a range of multi-dimensional transportation engineering and planning tasks. The flexible on-call consultant service contracts with qualified transportation firms will help meet the needs of the city. Each firm selected for an on-call contract will be required to enter into a master agreement with the city. This master agreement will fulfill the consultant solicitation and selection process for the work to be performed under the on-call contract.
