Request for Proposals - Professional Architectural and Engineering Services
The Commissioners of Wasco County request proposals from experienced firms interested in providing Professional architectural, engineering and construction management services. The intent of the County is to enter into a contract with the selected firm to develop construction design documents including all required engineering services for the new Wasco County 3rd street building and Courthouse remodels. The contract will include a fixed fee for the entire scope of the work. Firms responding to this request will be evaluated based upon their qualifications, prior experience, proposed schedule, a plan for completing work, associated fees, and other relevant factors.

The primary focus at the 3rd street building will be to create an efficient and “one-stop” location for the constituents of Wasco County, while taking into consideration the long and short term space needs of several individual departments. Changes to the Courthouse building will include security upgrades, elevator addition and workspace remodels.

Electronic copies of the Request for Proposal may be obtained HERE. A pre-proposal meeting is scheduled for April 19, 2024, at 10:00 a.m. at the new Wasco County Administrative office building located at 401 E 3rd St., The Dalles, Oregon. Proposals are due prior to May 14, 2024 at 3:00 PM PDT. Proposals received after that time will not be considered. The County may interview one or more of the top finalists.
