This is a service / maintenance or supply contract in New Ulm, Minnesota. Contact the soliciting agency for additional information.

MnDOT requests proposals from three qualified responders under each of MnDOT's prequalified work areas for Archaeological Work (12.1) and Architectural/History (12.4) (see below) so that potential effects from projects to historic properties can be assessed as per required federal and state laws. Six contracts will be awarded under this request, three of each type. The goal of this project is to is to provide technical assistance on Federal Highway Administration (FHWA)-funded, MnDOT District and locally lead projects, and MnDOT District state-funded projects submitted to CRU for review under required state and federal laws when MnDOT staff are unable complete the required work due to the emergency and time-sensitive nature of the work. Since the historic properties evaluation process is one of discovery (i.e., it is unknown when a project may affect historic properties or even if historic properties exist within the area of a project), it is impossible to adequately staff internally to meet peak workloads, to address all unanticipated discoveries, and to list the exact State Project numbers for which work will be required. Prospective, pre-qualified responders who have any questions regarding this request for letters of interest must submit questions, by e-mail, to the Contract Administrator: Daniel Duffy daniel.duffy@state.mn.us Questions regarding this announcement must be received, via e-mail, by the Contact Administrator identified above no later than 2:00PM Central Time on 2/09/2026. MnDOT anticipates posting answers to all questions received by 2:00PM Central Time on 2/11/2026. MNDOT: RFQ - Cultural Resources Unit Technical Assistance: Fiscal Year 2027-2029
