The District relies heavily on external consulting services to deliver various aspects of the Capital Program and support Operations. The District will procure additional support from “Professional” and various “other Personal” services firms as necessary to serve our customers in the best manner possible. In order to facilitate the selection of consultants, the District commonly uses a consultant roster. For large projects, the District will issue a Request for Proposal.

Consultant services solicited by the District may include:

• Professional Services “A&E”: Architecture, Engineering, Surveying, & Landscape Architecture as defined in accordance with RCW 39.80.020.
• Personal Services: All other services, including but not limited to public outreach, accounting, communications, legal, strategic planning, environmental reviews, and human resources.

• Neil Kimsey Regional Force Main Upgrade Project: This project will upgrade the Neil Kimsey Regional Pump Station by installing 3.25 miles of 22-inch force main. An RFP is currently posted on the District procurement portal. Additional project information can be found here.
• Capital Program On-Call Engineering and Professional Services: The Districts current On-Call Contracts will expire at the end of 2025. An RFP for a new series of On-Call Contracts is planned for advertisement in the summer of 2025.
