Evaluation Factors

Award will be based on a best-value trade-off, with Technical and Past Performance factors, when combined, being significantly more important than Price.

  1. Technical (Acceptable/Unacceptable): Offerors must demonstrate successful management and oversight of WWTP O&M, employ a primary WWTP operator with a current South Carolina Environmental Certification Board Class B (or higher) license, acknowledge tiered response timelines for service calls, and include a Mission-Essential Services Plan.
  2. Past Performance: Evaluated for recency (within 3 years) and relevancy, specifically experience with Small Package Plants, Lift Stations, Backflow Preventers, and Pump and Haul services.
  3. Price: Total price for the base and all option years will be evaluated.

Amendments and Clarifications

This opportunity has been amended multiple times. Amendment 3 (latest) incorporates a revised Performance Work Statement (PWS) and PMI Spreadsheet (Rev 1) to reflect a reduction in backflow preventers from three to one, and adds annual effluent flow meter calibration. It also includes a list of repairs (Atch-05) and a Questions and Answers document (Atch-06). The Q&A clarifies previous contractor struggles with Total Residual Chlorine (TRC), Total Suspended Solids (TSS), E.Coli, and Dissolved Oxygen (DO), and confirms contractor responsibility for exterior painting touch-ups and remote tank level indicator maintenance.

Required Submissions

Offerors must submit quotes via email to the listed points of contact. The updated RFQ Pricing Workbook (Atch-04_RFQ Pricing Workbook WWTP OM_FA441826Q0003_05 Mar 2026.xlsx) must be used for pricing. All responsible sources may submit a proposal.
