WHAT THEY WANT
(Summarized from the RFP)
Clark County Public Works, Washington, intends to award a single as-needed professional services contract for structural engineering support to its bridge and structure programs. The county turns to an outside firm when its own staff lack either the expertise or the capacity for a task, and the selected consultant will work under individually issued Task Assignments that set the scope, schedule and compensation for each project before work begins. To qualify, a firm must have a nationally certified bridge inspector (per 23 CFR 650.305) on staff who will serve as team leader, and proposals must identify that person and their qualifications.

WHAT OTHERS ASKED
2 questions answered
▶
The RFP states that firms must have a nationally certified bridge inspector (per 23 CFR 650.305) on staff in order to qualify. Would this requirement be satisfied if the certified bridge inspector/team leader is with a subconsultant included on our proposed team, or does this individual need to be an employee of the prime consultant?
Eligibility
▶
In Section IIB. Item 2, the RFP states, “Proposals must be clear, succinct and not exceed four (4) pages, excluding resumes, coversheet and debarment form. Proposers who submit more than the pages indicated may not have the additional pages of the proposal read or considered.” Later, in Section IIC, Proposal Content, resumes and the debarment form are not listed. Can you confirm that resumes and the debarment form will not count against the page limit?
