Agency Seeking Services
The Alameda County Public Works Agency (ACPWA) is seeking proposals from firms (Proposers) that are
interested in providing on-call construction management (resident engineering, inspection, materials
testing, storm water support) services for Agency projects. Agency projects include but are not limited to
flood control and roadway improvement projects. Alameda County Public Works Agency (ACPWA) is the
division of the County of Alameda (County) government responsible for developing, operating, and
maintaining public works infrastructure projects, such as county roadways. ACPWA also serves the
Alameda County Flood Control and Water Conservation District (District).
ACPWA performs this function with a dedicated team of program managers, professional engineers,
skilled technicians and other talented support staff. Sometimes large and complex projects require the
agency to supplement its staff with the additional expertise and resources of specialized consultants.
When this is the case, ACPWA seeks competitive proposals for professional services by issuing a request
for qualifications (RFQ).
The County intends to enter into a contract with up to three (3) Consultants for a period of three years
each, with the option to extend for two years, for a total period of up to five (5) years. The County will
administer the contracts for the County and District
The response to this solicitation shall be in the form of a Statement of Qualifications (SOQ).
It is the responsibility of a Consultant to be familiar with all of the specifications, terms and conditions of
the RFQ--including those contained in addenda. By the submission of an SOQ, the Consultant certifies,
that if awarded a contract, it will make no claim against the County based upon ignorance of conditions
or misunderstanding of the requirements.
