This solicitation seeks a qualified consulting firm to provide comprehensive design and engineering services for the improvement of Route 10 (Okner Parkway) to County Route 508 (West Northfield Avenue) in Livingston Township, Essex County, New Jersey. The effort is a “One‑Step” design project that will move from Concept Development through Preliminary Engineering and potentially into Final Design and construction‑phase services. The scope includes geometric roadway design, traffic engineering (signal design, capacity analysis), utility relocation, environmental documentation (NEPA categorical exclusion, wetland and flood‑hazard permits), right‑of‑way acquisition, storm‑water management, and a shared‑use pedestrian/bicycle path. The contractor must submit a technical proposal meeting detailed qualification, staffing, and schedule requirements, including an organization chart, key‑staff resumes, a critical‑path schedule, and a narrative on project‑specific challenges. The award will be based on a weighted technical evaluation (50 % project approach, 20 % NJDOT consultant rating, and 30 % experience/leadership criteria).
• Design services covering Highway, Traffic, Survey, Utility, Environmental, and Construction‑Phase deliverables.
• Required deliverables: Critical‑path model (Primavera or equivalent), 4‑page narrative on key issues, organization chart, and qualified team‑leader résumés.
• Evaluation heavily weighted toward the critical‑path schedule (50 % of technical score) and NJDOT’s Consultant Evaluation System rating (20 %).
• Project budget approximates $26.7 million (construction ≈ $21.3 M + ROW ≈ $5.4 M); fee is typically a percentage of total cost.
• No pre‑bid meeting or site visit is indicated; questions must be submitted via the provided procurement email.
