Construction Services

The City of Brookings, South Dakota, is seeking a contractor to provide geotechnical construction services to gather data on subsurface conditions at a specific site. The agency needs to solve the problem of characterizing the site's soil properties to inform future design and construction. To achieve this, the selected contractor must perform ten standard penetration test borings and conduct a suite of laboratory tests. The requested laboratory testing scope covers moisture content, dry density, fines content via number two hundred sieve wash, Atterberg liquid and plastic limits, and unconfined compression tests. The agency requires the contractor to compile these findings into a comprehensive engineering report. This report must detail the field and laboratory test results and provide specific earthwork and foundation recommendations for design and construction. The agency limits eligibility to onshore contractors located within the United States. The contractor must perform all physical boring and field work onsite in Brookings, South Dakota. The contract term spans a period of one year, and the agency is currently seeking proposals to determine the budget and pricing for these services.
