As Needed Transportation Engineering and Planning Services

The City of Ann Arbor is seeking one or more consulting firms to provide on‑call transportation engineering and planning services. The contract is structured as a three‑year “as‑needed” agreement with the option to extend for up to two additional one‑year periods (potential total of five years). The scope covers a wide range of transportation‑related tasks, from private‑development plan reviews and traffic‑impact studies to data collection, intersection analysis, grant writing, construction‑plan development, speed‑management, street‑lighting design, traffic‑signal timing, and policy assistance. Firms may submit qualifications for any subset of these services; the City will match tasks to the most qualified providers and may form a preferred‑vendor list. Proposals must include mandatory compliance forms (non‑discrimination, living‑wage, conflict‑of‑interest) and a rate‑table pricing format. • Broad “as‑needed” portfolio: private‑development review, traffic data collection, intersection & corridor analysis, grant applications, construction design, speed‑management, street lighting, signal design, policy drafting, and other transportation‑related services. • Multiple‑firm model: the City intends to award several on‑call contracts; bidders can target only the specialties they possess rather than covering the entire scope. • Key deadlines: pre‑proposal meeting (May 18 2026), questions due (May 19 2026), final proposal submission (June 8 2026 2:00 PM). • Contract term: 3 years with up‑to‑two optional one‑year extensions; performance expectations include cost estimates within 5 business days and task completions within 2 weeks after cost‑estimate approval.
