• Firms must provide evidence of at least three relevant projects completed within the past five years, include hourly rate sheets, and demonstrate ability to handle projected workload through June 2027.
• Local preference points (up to 3) are awarded for firms based in Yellowstone County or with majority staff in Billings, enhancing competitiveness.
• Submission deadline is Feb 2 2026 3 PM; one hard copy and one electronic copy are required; modifications allowed up to the deadline.
• No monetary award values are disclosed; contracts will be negotiated individually after pre‑qualification.
