Flood Mapping, Mitigation and Forecasting Program Services

Horry County needs a consultant to provide a Flood Mapping, Mitigation, and Forecasting Program to enhance flood-risk planning, emergency response, regulatory policy, development review, and capital investments. The requested scope includes integrating watershed-scale hydrologic and hydraulic modeling, flood-hazard mapping, near-real-time forecasting, regulatory assistance, and a prioritized Capital Improvement Program, delivered primarily through a secure, web-based dashboard. The consultant must inventory existing models, identify data gaps, evaluate future growth impacts, and perform analyses that combine local rainfall and receiving-water conditions rather than assuming simultaneous peak occurrences. Only USA organizations licensed to conduct business in South Carolina prior to contract award are eligible to bid. Proposers must submit a Statement of Qualifications of up to 35 pages alongside all required compliance forms, a W-9, references, and insurance proof by October 23, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. Local Time. All questions must be submitted to the Horry County Office of Procurement by October 9, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. Local Time. The solicitation requests a proposal for the budget, and it does not state the specific contract term or evaluation criteria.
