This Hillsborough County evaluation committee meeting held on July 15, 2026, focused on scoring and discussing proposals for professional services related to the design of the Ruskin reclaimed and potable water pipelines. Committee members reviewed and scored multiple firms based on criteria including the ability of the firm and its personnel, experience with similar projects, willingness and ability to meet schedule and budget requirements, and current workload. Firms evaluated included Chin Moore, Kennedy Jenks, McKim & Creed, Mead & Hunt, and V&A Consulting Engineers. Scores were assigned and consensus reached on each criterion, with additional bonus points awarded for Small Business Enterprise (SBE) participation, past performance, and volume of work. The committee confirmed short-listing at least three firms for further discussions as per solicitation requirements. The meeting concluded with a reminder that the code of silence remains in effect until the notice of intent to recommend award and protest period ends.
