This is a service / maintenance or supply contract in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio. Contact the soliciting agency for additional information.

The City of Cuyahoga Falls proposes to retain the services of a Construction Manager (CM) to perform the duties prescribed in connection with the construction of the Federally funded transportation improvement project, described below. The Project will resurface West Steels Corners Road from Akron-Peninsula Road to Northampton Road. The Project was sold on February 23, 2022, and the apparent low bid was $1,282,943.92. The objective is to request a Statement of Qualifications (SOQ's) to select a qualified engineering firm to perform construction engineering duties prescribed in connection with the resurfacing of West Steels Corners Road. Because the services are professional services, because qualified consulting engineering efforts could reduce the overall project cost and because the quality of the public improvements depends on the qualifications of the consultant, selection of the engineering consulting firm will be based upon a predetermined set of weighted criteria. The City reserves the right to conduct interviews with any, all, or none of the responding firms. In the event the City selection committee deems interviews necessary to select the best firm, the City will establish a meeting via teleconference at a mutually acceptable time. The City selection committee will meet key members of the firm's proposed project team. It shall be the selection committee's sole decision on whether any interviews are held and with which firms interviews are held. The City retains the option of rejecting or accepting any Statement of Qualifications. Should a firm be selected and the City cannot negotiate a contract with the selected firm ranked best qualified, the City shall inform the firm in writing of the termination of negotiations and enter into negotiations with the firm ranked next best qualified. If negotiations again fail, the same procedure shall be followed with each next best-qualified firm selected until a contract is negotiated. However, the City retains the right to reject all SOQ's and initiate the process of obtaining SOQ's from qualified engineering firms at a later date. The method of contractor selection has not been determined at this time.
