The PBC employs various methods to procure professional services. Depending on the specifics of the project or program, the PBC may issue a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) or a Request for Proposals (RFP), or the PBC may appoint an Engineer of Record or Program Engineer from our EOR LIQ Database.
Letters of Interest and Qualifications
The Letters of Interest and Qualifications (LIQ) database allows the PBC to have a uniform, accessible, current snapshot of firms interested in providing engineering services. The PBC is now accepting LIQs on a rolling basis from all architects and engineers.
