2019-E-0026 - Geotechnical Engineering Retainer Assignment

Project Number: 2019-E-0026 & 2019-E-0027                                                  
This assignment involves retaining two consultant firms to perform multiple projects involving pavement investigation and design and low complexity foundation type activites through a quotation process.   Daily, hourly, or per unit rates for various activities and services are established in the RFQ process. Based on these rates, a price satisfactory to both the MTO and the service provider is established for each individual activity.  Each project will also have a maximum ceiling value. The consultant firm with the highest ranking in the RFQ process will be offered  all work initially. In the event that a mutually satisfactory price or completion time for an individual project cannot be reached, or when performance is deemed unsatisfactory on a reoccurring basis, subsequent offers will be made to the additional firms based on their standing in the evaluation process.
