Engineering Services

The City of Fargo, North Dakota, is seeking a qualified engineering firm to provide comprehensive engineering services for local lift station infrastructure. The agency needs to evaluate existing lift station structures to determine the feasibility of incorporating a second pump, modifying the current structures, or constructing entirely new facilities. This project aims to solve capacity and structural limitations by establishing a clear engineering path forward for these critical utility assets. The scope of work requires the selected vendor to collect all available site data, including digital base mapping, right-of-way boundaries, property lines, utility data, and drainage information. The engineer must review and update base map data to reflect recent changes, annotate underground utilities, and conduct a complete geotechnical analysis featuring field data collection, laboratory testing, and a final recommendation report. Additionally, the partner will develop conceptual layouts for the selected lift station alternatives and identify potential utility impacts and necessary reconstructions. Eligible bidders must be onshore organizations based in the United States. The agency requires the selected partner to perform all project work onsite in Fargo, North Dakota. The agency has not disclosed a specific budget and is requesting pricing proposals from interested bidders to evaluate cost structures. The agency will accept formal questions regarding this procurement until the deadline on July 1, 2026. Evaluation criteria will focus on the bidder's ability to execute the detailed technical scope, the thoroughness of the geotechnical and structural evaluation plans, and the proposed cost structure.
