Description:

The City of Belleville is requesting interested firms to submit their On-Call Professional Engineering services qualifications to the City of Belleville, Illinois (“CITY”). This packet is intended to provide you with useful information and specifications of the desired scope of work.  This RFQ selection will be a five-year contract with an option to extend if both parties agree. The maximum dollar amount for this solicitation will be $1,000,000.

The CITY regularly receives federal and state funds along with local funds, which may be used to fund the engineering and design related consultant services. Our written policies and procedures follow state and federal guidelines for Quality Based Selection (QBS) and meet the requirements of 23 CFR 172 along with the Brooks Act.

Submissions will be received in sealed envelopes by Shelly Schaefer, City Clerk, at 101 South Illinois, Belleville, IL 62220 until 2:00 pm on Wednesday, January 21, 2026. Please note “On-Call Professional Statement of Qualifications” on the sealed envelope. Submissions shall not be withdrawn, modified, or altered after the opening.

At least one (1) of the printed copies shall not be held together by any sort of binding except for paperclips or binder clips. At least one (1) of the copies shall be a signed original.

It is the sole responsibility of the submitter to ensure that the statement of qualifications is received on or before the submission deadline. Emailed submissions will not be considered. Hard copies need to be submitted either via mail or in person. If mailing your bid, please allow ample time for receipt.

Submissions received after the deadline will not be considered. All costs directly or indirectly related to submitting a response will be borne by the submitter. The CITY is not obligated to accept any submitted response or negotiate with any persons or firms submitting a response. The City reserves the right to reject any and all submissions and to waive informalities and minor irregularities.

The submissions shall exclusively discuss the firm’s qualifications and ability to perform the work as described in the Desired Scope of Services. Fees are not being requested and will not be considered. Any submission that includes fees for any of the desired services will be disqualified.
