The Palmdale Water District (PWD) will be delivering a series of project elements under the Pure Water Antelope Valley (Pure Water AV) Program. PWD is assessing market interest for designing and constructing an advanced water purification facility (AWPF), product water pipeline, and groundwater injection wells at the (greenfield) property located at APN #3022-011-900 and APN # 302-011-002, in Palmdale, California and shown in Figure 1.1. This brief provides background information for the infrastructure to be constructed on the aforementioned property using the progressive design-build (PDB) delivery method to facilitate collaboration, innovation, and early cost certainty.
One-on-one market sounding calls will be held with interested progressive Design Build Entities (DBE), consisting of contractors and designers, in advance of the Request for Qualifications (RFQ), with the intent to gain feedback on the intended approach, risk transfer limitations, and contract element preferences to refine the DBE procurement process. See the briefing for additional information including available times and how to schedule a meeting.
