Professional Services

The NKWD issues Requests for Qualifications and/or Requests for Proposals to procure professional services that require a professional license from a state board, an advanced educational degree, or recognized expertise.  Although these services are not required to be formally advertised, the District may post notices in the local newspapers, contact firms completing the Automatic Notifications for Bids and Services process, and/or post a notice on its website.  The NKWD may identify of list of firms that are pre-qualified to perform certain services for multiple years.  Firms wishing to be pre-qualified may request a copy of the most recent Request for Qualifications and submit a formal response at any time.  Requests for Proposals will normally be sent to a selected number of pre-qualified firms.

The following is a representative list of professional services:

• Geotechnical Engineering
• Legal
• Rate Planning
• Real Estate Appraisals
• Water Main Engineering
• Water Supply, Storage and Treatment Engineering

Firms are encouraged to complete the process for Automatic Notifications for Bids and Services and to visit the Current Procurement Items list for available Statements of Qualifications.
