Before the bid goes in
An RFP includes environmental work your current team doesn't cover. We can help identify firms to talk with and sort out responsibilities before anyone commits to the proposal.
Primes & Agencies
Need environmental support for a bid or project?
A contract may call for sampling, permitting, monitoring or other environmental work outside your usual scope. EPN connects independent environmental firms and technical professionals so prime contractors and public agencies can explore the right specialist support for the job.
Where an outside specialist can help
After the scope changes
An investigation turns up an additional issue, a permit condition adds work, or a project needs more field time than expected. We can look for specialists who can take on the added work.
Across multiple locations
A contract covers sites outside your regular service area. Local firms and field resources may make more sense than sending the same crew to every location.
Environmental work we can help source
- Site assessment, due diligence and environmental investigation
- Water, groundwater and soil sampling or monitoring
- Permitting, compliance and environmental planning
- Field crews, drilling, laboratories and other project support
- Additional technical disciplines, including licensed services through appropriately qualified firms when available
For prime contractors
If you've got the main contract covered but need environmental support, send us the relevant scope and schedule. We can discuss which specialties are needed, potential subcontracting arrangements and what each firm would be responsible for. Work shares and pricing need to be agreed before they're represented in a proposal.
For agencies and public owners
EPN can be a point of contact when you're exploring available environmental expertise or planning a project with several specialty needs. For publicly procured work, the applicable solicitation, qualification and award requirements still govern how firms participate. EPN's role and the contracting entity depend on the project.
How we look at a teaming request
There isn't a standard team for every project. The right arrangement depends on the solicitation, the work involved and which firms are able to take it on.
-
Review the actual scope
We start with the work description, site location, deadline and any mandatory credentials or subcontracting restrictions.
-
Talk to suitable firms
Potential participants review their part of the work and confirm interest, qualifications and capacity. Nobody is presented as committed without their agreement.
-
Agree on roles before submitting
The parties decide who is contracting, who is preparing each technical deliverable, and how scope, schedule and pricing are handled.
Project and teaming inquiries
Have a scope or solicitation to discuss?
Share the work you're trying to cover, where it's located and when a team would need to be ready. We'll discuss whether EPN can help identify a practical fit.
