Rfp: Professional Engineering, Environmental, And Technical Services

Professional Engineering, Environmental, and Technical Services

The Yakutat Tlingit Tribe (YTT) is seeking a qualified consulting firm to provide professional civil engineering, environmental services, engineering services, and technical support services through an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Single Award Task Order Contract (SATOC).

YTT administers a diverse portfolio of programs and projects throughout the City and Borough of Yakutat, including environmental restoration, transportation infrastructure, aquatic organism passage (AOP) culverts, fisheries, community facilities, environmental resilience, and natural resource management. These efforts are funded through a combination of Tribal, Federal, State, and grant funding sources and frequently require specialized professional services.

YTT also administers programs including the Tribal Transportation Program (TTP), the Native American Lands Environmental Mitigation Program (NALEMP), the Environmental Protection Agency Tribal Response Program (EPA TRP), fisheries restoration initiatives, and other Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and community development efforts.

YTT anticipates continued investment in transportation improvements, aquatic organism passage projects, watershed restoration, environmental remediation, climate adaptation, bridge development, and transportation safety.

The selected consultant(s) shall work closely with multiple programs — the Tribal Transportation Program, the Native American Lands Environmental Mitigation Program, the Environmental Protection Agency Tribal Response Program, the Environmental Protection Agency, fisheries programs, and environmental monitoring — to advance strategic planning, funding development, permitting, design, construction, and implementation of these projects.

The resulting contract shall have a base term of three (3) years, with an option for a two-year extension. During this period, YTT intends to issue individual task orders for services as project needs arise and funding becomes available. Task orders will be issued as either lump sum or time and expenses as appropriate to each scope of work – the selected firm will prepare open book estimates for task order proposals using provided rate sheets and proposed overhead and profit markup rates as established through this proposal.
