The Severn River Association (SRA) is issuing a public, competitive Request for Qualifications (RFQ) to identify 3-6 qualified consultants, design firms, and/or construction partners to assist with upland and shoreline restoration projects in the Severn River watershed. Guided by U.S. Office of Management and Budget (OMB) procurement standards, SRA aims to ensure ethical, transparent, and responsible use of funds from sources such as the Chesapeake Bay Trust, Maryland state agencies, NOAA, EPA, and private donors.
The selected firms will support SRA’s restoration efforts, including stormwater management, living shorelines, stream and wetland restoration, nature-based septic treatment, and green infrastructure projects. These firms will contribute to subwatershed action planning, design, permitting, and construction. They will also assist in developing grant proposals for funding, with project budgets ranging from $30,000 to $2,000,000. Selected firms will remain qualified contractors for three years and may also compete for separate project-specific requests for proposals (RFPs) and/or future RFQs.
Inquiries should be emailed to Ben Fertig, ben@severnriver.org. Aggregated questions will be posted on SRA’s website as an FAQ.
Responses to this RFQ must be submitted in PDF format via email to Ben Fertig, SRA Restoration Manager, at ben@severnriver.org by 5 p.m. on February 15, 2025.
