Regional Transportation Authority of Pima County Notice of Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for Advance Delivery Team

Notice is hereby given that the Regional Transportation Authority of Pima County, hereinafter referred to as the “RTA,” is soliciting Statements of Qualifications (“SOQs”) from qualified firms to provide technical assistance with identifying, analyzing and resolving key project issues, challenges, concerns, and/or opportunities in order to facilitate future streamlined project delivery as outlined in Appendix A, Scope of Work.

RTA invites interested firms to submit written technical SOQs relating to this project. A selection committee will evaluate the SOQs based on understanding and approach, team experience and familiarity, and relevant experience. Scope of Work and additional information, including the Mandatory Terms & Conditions and/or answers to questions may be found at https://rtamobility.com/who-we-are/rfp-rfq/.

The RTA anticipates selecting one (1) firm to provide Advance Delivery Team services on an on-call basis. Individual task orders may vary in scope and complexity. The estimated aggregate budget for services issued under the initial contract term is between $500,000 and $750,000. Services will be requested on an as-needed, if-needed basis, and the resultant contract(s) shall neither be exclusive nor constitute a commitment by the RTA that any minimum quantity of services will be required.

Questions shall be addressed as identified under Item 3 of “Instructions to Respondents.” Questions may be submitted to Alicia Roberson, Procurement Officer, at info@RTAmobility.com.

Submittal Process

Sealed SOQs shall be received by RTA’s Procurement Officer, by 12 p.m. (noon), Mountain Standard Time (MST) on July 10, 2026.

SOQs shall be submitted to:

Pima Association of Governments
Attention: Procurement Officer
1 E. Broadway Blvd., Suite 401
Tucson, AZ  85701

SOQs may be delivered to RTA’s office by U.S. Postal Service mail, private, paid messenger service (such as FedEx, DHL, UPS, etc.), or by hand-carried delivery.

SOQs delivered by facsimile or electronic mail or in any format other than paper copies will not be considered.

Submittals must be in the actual possession of RTA’s Procurement Officer at the location indicated, on or prior to the exact time and date indicated above. Late submittals shall not be considered. The prevailing clock shall be RTA’s clock.

Submittals must be submitted in a sealed envelope with the RFQ Title and the firm’s name and address clearly indicated on the envelope. All submittals must be completed in ink or typewritten.

Participation in the Advance Delivery Team does not disqualify a Consultant from related future RTA, Pima Association of Governments, or member-jurisdiction procurements. However, a Consultant may be disqualified from a future procurement if the Consultant obtained material nonpublic information through its Advance Delivery Team work and gained an unfair competitive advantage as a result.

One original shall be bound and single-sided and formatted as described herein. The original must be bound in a single volume and constitute the SOQ in its entirety and clearly marked “ORIGINAL.” A digital copy, saved on a secure (virus-free), read-only USB portable drive (e.g., flash drive, etc.) of the SOQ must be included in the sealed envelope or box. Additional requirements are described herein under INSTRUCTIONS TO RESPONDENTS.
