Description
The State of North Dakota Department of Water Resources is seeking the original developers of the open‑source TIMFLOW Python package to add new analytic‑element capabilities. The work includes implementing circular inhomogeneities for both steady‑state and transient modules, adding polygonal recharge areas and polygonal inhomogeneities for the transient module, and creating target‑head well functionality. The initial phase is a six‑month effort budgeted at $37,920, with a potential total ceiling of $200,000 over five years for additional phases. Responses must be submitted via the NDBuys electronic procurement system by the October 8, 2026 deadline.
• Deliver enhancements to TIMFLOW (circular and polygonal features, target‑head wells) for steady‑state and transient modeling.
• Non‑competitive award; only the original TIMFLOW developers (via S.S. Papadopulos & Associates) are eligible.
• Budget: $37,920 for the first six months; up to $200,000 for future phases, with all work performed under a state contract.
