The City of Dubuque, Iowa is soliciting competitive sealed proposals from professional consulting firms to evaluate the existing collection and pumping systems that transport sanitary sewage in the Kerper Boulevard Lift Station sewer service area, develop a facility plan with phased improvements to address identified high risk infrastructure, and to design and construct the lift station replacement. The City also prefers that the Consultant be responsible for supervising any work that may be sub-contracted, including third party inspection firms. Based on written recommendation and agreement between the Consultant and City, the City shall enter into sub-consultant contracts independent of this contract if required.

The City anticipates bidding this project in November 2024 with a final project completion date of September 2025. The selected Consultant will be expected to complete the contracted scope of work within the specified timeframe under the general direction of the identified City project manager, in Section7.0 of this document, as authorized by the Dubuque City Council. The project will require coordination with the City’s Engineering and Water Resource Recovery Center (WRRC) Departments.
