Fire Station Location and Facility Needs Study Service

The Town of St. Albans, Vermont requires a qualified architectural, engineering, public safety consulting, or facility-planning firm to perform a comprehensive Fire Station Location and Facility Needs Study. The selected consultant must evaluate the current and alternative station sites, analyze at least five years of emergency incident data, assess operational and facility needs, evaluate roadway networks, and deliver conceptual site guidance alongside planning-level cost estimates. Only onshore USA organizations are eligible to bid, and the work will be performed offsite. Bidders must submit questions via email to Chief Matt Mulheron by 2:00 PM on November 5, 2026. Bidders must submit electronic proposals via email or online by 2:00 PM on November 12, 2026. The Town will evaluate proposals based on qualifications, approach, experience, schedule, and overall value in addition to price, and it is not obligated to select the lowest-cost proposal. Bidders must submit a lump-sum or not-to-exceed fee proposal, as the source text states the Town is looking for proposals regarding the budget.
