The City of Dothan issued a competitive Request for Proposals (RFP 25-042) seeking a professional firm to provide comprehensive disaster debris removal, disposal, reduction, and monitoring services following a disaster event. The scope includes collection and transport of debris from public rights‑of‑way, monitoring reduction and disposal sites, providing mobile monitoring services, and maintaining detailed data records in compliance with FEMA guidelines. The award was made on July 15, 2025 to Thompson Consulting based on staff evaluation rather than lowest‑price criteria, with labor costs detailed in a pricing worksheet totaling $14,181 and non‑labor items billed at cost. Key points:
• Scope covers full‑life‑cycle debris management (collection, transport, disposal, reduction, monitoring, data management).
• Evaluation‑based award to a single vendor; pricing includes labor rates for project management, GIS, field staff, and data entry.
• Non‑labor costs are reimbursed at cost, with per‑diem capped at GSA rates and an annual CPI‑U price‑adjustment clause.
