REQUEST FOR QUALIFICATIONS
Separate Statements of Qualifications (SOQs) for Construction Manager/General Contractor (CM/GC) services for “W.O. 19-42, West End Water Treatment Plant Project” will be received from Contractors by the City Engineer’s Office, 2224 Montana Avenue, Billings, MT 59101 until 4:30 p.m. local time on Friday, June 18, 2021.
The project consists of a West End Water Treatment Plant (WEWTP) capable of treating Yellowstone River water either directly or via future reservoirs to meet all primary drinking water standards. The WEWTP will deliver up to 18 MGD and be expandable to 36 MGD. Process design includes rapid mix chemical pre-treatment, flocculation, sedimentation and granular media filtration. Filtered water would be pumped to a 36 MGD above-grade clearwell, and a high service pump station would deliver the treated water through approximately 2 miles of new Zone 2 and 3 transmission main extensions to the City’s existing water distribution system. WEWTP building design, yard piping connections and residual solids handling facilities are also included in the project.

| SOQs received will be ranked by a selection committee using a scoring system based on defined criteria. Approximately three (3) Contractors having the highest ranked SOQs will be required to submit project proposals. The committee will select the final Contractor by evaluating and ranking proposals received from the short-listed Contractors. Preconstruction contract negotiations will ensue with the Contractor having the highest ranked proposal. Pending successful contract negotiations and Billings City Council approval, the Contractor will join the project team consisting of the City of Billings and Burns and McDonnell Engineering. During the preconstruction phase, the Contractor will work as an integral part of the project team to evaluate and further develop the preliminary design, assisting the Engineer and City in identifying opportunities for improvement and offering alternative solutions. The Contractor will develop cost estimates and offer suggestions with respect to means, methods, materials innovations and construction sequencing. During the construction phase, the Contractor will provide the necessary resources and subcontractors to implement the team’s design and construct the project. Throughout the entire process, the objective is to maintain a spirit of cooperation and open communication so that project goals and objectives are clearly understood, potential problems are promptly resolved, and upon completion, the project is deemed a success by all. The Contractor or other key personnel cannot team with other partners to submit more than one SOQ. Only one SOQ per Contractor is acceptable, and City receipt of multiple SOQs from a Contractor will disqualify the Contractor. Contractors interested in submitting SOQs may contact the City of Billings to receive the SOQ Instructions and any addenda that may be issued. A complete digital SOQ Instructions package is also available at QuestCDN. The SOQ documents may be downloaded at no charge at www.questcdn.com by inputting QuestCDN Project No. 7799765 on the QuestCDN project search page.
