The City of Ilwaco is soliciting proposals from qualified consulting firms to provide professional services to complete a utility rate study for the City’s water, sanitary sewer, and stormwater services. A Scope of Work with the required elements and detailed information is available below. Proposal submissions will be accepted electronically and are due no later than 2:00 p.m. Friday May 30, 2025. Any revisions, updates and/or clarifications of the Request for Proposal will be posted on this webpage. Questions regarding this project should be directed to Holly Beller, City Administrator, Phone (360) 642-3145 or [email protected].
Do you want a cost proposal, and if so, should that be submitted separately?
A Cost Proposal will be accepted by separate submission.
Would the table of contents, exceptions to the contract (if any), or resumes included in an Appendix count toward the page limit?
Table of Contents, Contract Exceptions, and Resumes may be excluded form the page limit.
Given the limited number of pages, may we combine the references requested in the Qualifications and Experience section with the references requested in the Successful Past Projects section? May we also combine List of Project Responsible Personnel with the requested personnel information in the Qualifications and Experience section?
Combining references and personnel would be acceptable.
Could you clarify that the separate submission of the Cost Proposal would be during contract negotiations after the selection of a qualified firm?
The selection will be based on the criteria listed in the proposal, not on the firm’s cost proposal. The separate submission of the cost proposal will be considered later.
