Tender: HWY 28/63 Regional Water Pipeline Condition Assessment and 25-Year Renewal Prioritization Study

About

The Highway 28/63 Regional Water Services Commission is seeking a consultant to complete a regional water pipeline condition assessment and establish a prioritized 25-year capital renewal plan for its system of more than 200 kilometres of waterlines and associated infrastructure. The study will review available drawings, asset and operating records, maintenance and leak history and hydraulic information; develop an editable GIS inventory for pipelines and an Excel register for facilities, pumps, mechanical and electrical systems, instrumentation, controls and structural components; conduct visual condition assessments of accessible infrastructure and identify immediate concerns and information gaps; assess asset criticality, likelihood and consequences of failure, remaining useful life and renewal priorities; prepare planning-level replacement cost estimates and forecasts for repair, rehabilitation and replacement; and develop unconstrained and prioritized 25-year investment forecasts that consider risk, available funding and other capital needs. The consultant will facilitate workshops with Commission representatives, prepare a draft report, present findings and deliver a final report with editable inventories, supporting calculations and investment forecasts. The base scope covers records review, visual inspections and planning-level analysis; any additional testing, detailed hydraulic modelling, detailed engineering design or construction services must be identified and priced separately. Proposals must include methodology, project team, relevant experience, schedule, detailed fees, assumptions and exclusions, and the anticipated project duration is approximately six months from authorization to proceed.
