Professional Structural Engineering and Surveying Services

The Northern Neck Planning District Commission in Warsaw, Virginia, is seeking professional structural engineering and surveying services to implement a flood mitigation assistance project. The project aims to solve recurring flooding issues by elevating six residential homes to meet flood-code compliance. The selected provider will design foundation systems suitable for the appropriate flood zone to facilitate permitting and construction. The scope of work requires the engineer to review and approve all shop drawings, material specifications, installation methods, and contractor submittals. The engineer must also perform progress inspections to certify compliance with the project specifications. Additionally, the provider will assist the Commission with placing the construction contractor under contract, which includes reviewing and approving all necessary insurance certificates and bonds. The surveying scope requires the provider to deliver official elevation certificates to determine the required elevation height for each home. The surveyor must also provide a final elevation certificate after the construction is completed by other parties. The selected firm must gather input from the homeowners regarding the plans for their homes and incorporate this feedback directly into the design criteria. Eligibility is strictly limited to onshore organizations based in the United States. The performance of the contracted work must take place onsite in Warsaw, Virginia. Bidders must submit their proposals digitally via email or through the designated online portal, and the agency is currently open to receiving budget proposals for these services.
