Scope
The Central Ohio Transit Authority (COTA) requests proposals from qualified firms to provide right of way and related acquisition services for bus rapid transit projects. Services will support right-of-way acquisition including, but not limited to, partial acquisitions, temporary and permanent easements, relocations, excess-property transactions, and other real property activities. Firms submitting proposals must be ODOT prequalified consulting firms for right-of-way services and must be able to support the indicated volume of work and anticipated corridor-level surges without delaying acquisition. All work must satisfy Federal Transit Administration (FTA) Small Starts requirements; comply with the Uniform Relocation and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act (Uniform Act), 49 CFR Part 24, and the most current version of FTA Circular 5010.1; and meet Project Management Oversight Contractor (PMOC) review expectations.

How to bid on this
This is a contract solicitation, not a grant. To bid, you submit a proposal (usually a price and a description of how you would do the work) directly to the government, through the channel the official listing specifies, not through Oppward.
- Make sure your business has an active SAM.gov registration. You cannot be paid on a federal contract without one.
- Read the full solicitation on the official listing above, especially the scope of work, not just this summary. Our guide to reading a solicitation walks through what to look for.
- This listing has no set-aside restriction ("full and open competition"), meaning any business, large or small, can bid.
- Submit your proposal by the deadline, using the exact submission method the official listing states. A technically on-time bid sent the wrong way is often treated as late.
