At-the-Ready Consultant Services for Municipalities 2023

The Municipal Assistance Section of the Agency of Transportation (VTrans) is requesting submission of qualifications from consultants to assist municipalities with At-the-Ready (‘ATR’) services for a variety of local transportation improvement projects. This Request for Qualifications (RFQ) from VTrans, and any responses by interested consultants, represent the first stage of a two-stage process. No contract between a consultant and VTrans will result from this RFQ, but VTrans will use responses to this RFQ to make a determination of which consultants are the most qualified to assist municipalities, who will then be listed on a publicly available Qualified Roster (“Roster”) for local government transportation projects. The second stage will take place via a Request for Proposals (RFP) from a municipality to a consultant on the Qualified Roster, which will detail the Scope of Work (SOW) for which a municipality needs consultant assistance, followed by the consultant proposal to the municipality in response to such an RFP, which may then result in a contract between the municipality and a consultant. This RFQ is soliciting proposals in three major categories: Design, Municipal Project Management, and Construction Inspection. Proposals are due on February 9,
