Pre-Advertisement Notice for DWM On-Call Diving Services

The City of Atlanta, on behalf of the Department of Watershed Management, will undergo a Multi-Step Sealed Bid process consisting of a prequalification phase as the initial step, followed by an Invitation for Bid (IFB) for the procurement of on-call diving services. These services are intended to support the City¿s wastewater, drinking water, and related facilities through physical inspections, evaluations, maintenance, and repair of underground linear infrastructure, deep tunnel systems, pump stations/shafts, and other associated structures and facilities. The work may include inspection services with written and photographic documentation, pump placement and removal, underwater mechanical repair, welding, cutting, concrete structural repair, pipe or lining repair, and debris removal. Interested vendors will be prequalified based on demonstrated experience, personnel qualifications, required certifications, safety training, and the operational capability to perform commercial diving services in complex utility and treatment facility environments. Vendors must also meet applicable commercial diving qualifications and standards, including OSHA commercial diving requirements and related safety certifications. The City¿s expectation is to establish a contract with a qualified contractor capable of providing timely, safe, reliable on-call diving services in support of the inspection, maintenance, and repair needs of critical water and wastewater infrastructure throughout the City of Atlanta. A Pre-Solicitation Conference will be noticed and then held to provide additional details and address questions. We hope to see you there.
