INTENT AND GENERAL INFORMATION

In accordance with Section 287.055, Florida Statutes, known as the Consultants Competitive

Negotiation Act (CCNA), the Wakulla County Board of County Commissioners (the “County”) is

issuing Request for Qualifications (RFQ) 2026-09 to solicit proposals from qualified consulting

firms (the “Proposer”) to provide professional design services for this project.

Wakulla County (the “County”) is seeking Statements of Qualifications from qualified

professional engineering firms (the “Consultant”) to provide surveying, flood risk reduction

analysis, engineering, design, plans preparation, public notices, permitting coordination, and

bid proposal preparation services for Phase 1 for RFQ 2026-09 PROFESSIONAL SERVICES FOR

WAKULLA GARDENS STORMWATER INFRASTRUCTURE.

The purpose of this phase is to evaluate and develop measures to reduce flood risk within the

Wakulla Gardens subdivision. No construction activities are included in Phase 1.

Phase 2 of the project, which is not included in this RFQ, is anticipated to include the acquisition

of approximately sixteen (16) parcels and the construction of six (6) stormwater retention basins

designed to provide protection against the 10-year storm event.

It is the intent of this RFQ to enter into a Contract with the successful Respondent to begin upon

approval of the Board of County Commissioners and the issuance of a Notice to Proceed (NTP),

for the Work.

Funding for the project is made possible through a federal grant and is contingent on strict

conformance to the guidelines. Respondents will comply with Exhibit C of Appendix B, Federal

Provisions. If a Respondent cannot adhere to or objects to any of the applicable federal

requirements, Respondent’s proposal may be deemed by the County as unresponsive. In order

for the Respondent to be eligible for consideration, the Respondent MUST have an active

registration with Sam.gov and provide their Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) on Form 1 of the

Proposal Forms.

If this RFQ is amended, the County Procurement Office will issue an appropriate addendum to

the RFQ. Any addendums will be posted on the County Website. If an addendum is issued, all

terms and conditions of this RFQ that are not specifically modified in the addendum shall remain

unchanged. An addendum to this RFQ will be issued if any of the date and/or time change, unless

the date(s) fall after the date the RFQ Proposal(s) are due. Specific dates/time will be determined

at each phase.

It is understood and the Respondent hereby agrees to be solely responsible for obtaining all

materials and determining the best methods that will be utilized to meet the intent of the

specifications of this RFQ. Failure by the Respondent to acquaint themselves with the available

information will not relieve them from responsibility for estimating properly the difficulty or cost

of successfully performing the work. Proposers are expected to examine the specifications and

all instructions pertaining to the required commodities/services. Failure to do so will be at

Respondent’s risk.
