RFQ: Staff Augmentation Services for Waterway Resiliency Program

The City and County of Denver’s Department of Transportation and Infrastructure awarded a $30 million on‑call professional‑services contract to HNTB Corporation to provide staff‑augmentation and owner‑advisor support for the Waterway Resiliency (WATR) Program. The contract is structured as an IDIQ with task orders that will cover a broad suite of services—including program management, technical engineering, environmental permitting, procurement advisory, risk management, adaptive‑management monitoring, USACE coordination, document controls, cost estimating, construction QA/QC, stakeholder engagement, utilities and real‑estate coordination, and executive advisory—over an initial three‑year period renewable thereafter. The solicitation required exact hourly rates, a DBE participation plan (per task order), and compliance with federal USDOT regulations.
