CONSULTANT SERVICES FOR

I. INTRODUCTION

The City of Redding Public Works Department-Wastewater Utility (City) is soliciting proposals to

provide consultant services for upgrading the existing Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition

(SCADA) system. The City’s system includes 21 sites, comprised of lift stations, a flow monitoring

station, and two solid waste gas extraction systems.

To alleviate systemwide SCADA and hardware deficiencies and to add necessary remote

monitoring and alarm notification capabilities, the City is seeking proposals from highly qualified

firms to provide professional services related to software procurement, development, testing,

documentation, integration, remote access, and alarm notifications associated with a turnkey

SCADA system.

This project is funded by the Wastewater Utility, with the total project cost estimated to be $300,000

including equipment purchasing, installation and programming.

The consultant services contract is expected to be awarded in July 2026 and is anticipated to be

no longer than twelve (12) months. Any consultant responding to this RFP must be willing to

for Proposals (RFP).

A mandatory site walk will be performed. The mandatory site walk will start at the Sunnyhill Lift

Station, located at 5100 Bechelli Lane at 9:00 am on Tuesday, April 28, 2026. After completing

the site walk at Sunnyhill, City staff and attendees will proceed to visit a minimum of one other lift

station. City staff will be available to answer technical questions that arise during the site visit.

If a proposing consultant fails to have a representative attend the mandatory site walk meeting, then

the City will deem their proposal as non-responsive. Requests for alternate days and times for lift

station visits with City staff will not be accommodated.
