The Lansing Board of Water and Light is seeking a qualified consulting firm to provide comprehensive surveying, base mapping, and design services for the replacement and installation of multiple water mains throughout the city. The scope includes topographic surveys, detailed design drawings, permit assistance, geotechnical core sampling, traffic control planning, and construction engineering support through design review, inspection, and as‑built documentation. Deliverables must be submitted in stages (50%, 75%, 95%, and final) with three budgetary design scenarios for each segment and full coordination with city utilities and the BWL. The contract period runs from award through January 15 2027 for design tasks, with construction engineering support beginning in spring 2027.
• Survey existing utilities, topography, and right‑of‑way conditions across three street segments (Pierce St, Post Oak Ln, McKim Ave).
• Produce base maps and detailed construction‑grade design plans (scale 1″:40′) for 8‑inch and 6‑inch ductile‑iron water mains, valves, hydrants, and service tie‑ins.
• Provide three design‑scenario cost estimates (open‑cut, directional drilling, jack‑and‑bore).
• Assist with all required permits and coordinate with MISS DIG, City of Lansing, and utility owners.
• Conduct geotechnical pavement coring, soil classification, and reporting.
• Offer construction‑phase engineering services: inspection, traffic control, material testing, CCTV surveys, change‑order processing, and final punch‑list verification.
