The scope includes supporting program administration, assisting applicants and grantees, conducting environmental documentation (NEPA CATEX), and performing site inspections for up to 74 new electric vehicle fast-charging station locations off of alternative fuel corridors. The contract is for approximately three years, with an estimated value of $1,962,644.55.
MnDOT’s Office of Sustainability and Public Health received funding from the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) Formula Program to administer fast charging (DCFC) networks at an additional 74 location clusters on roadways outside the alternative fuel corridors. OSPH is using a grant process for procurement with third party entities to own, design, construct, operate and maintain Electric Vehicle fast charging stations that are not within MnDOT’s right-of-way. MnDOT anticipates the funding distribution to happen through two rounds of RFPs (3a and 3b). To successful implement this effort, MnDOT is seeking consultant support to assist with program administration, applicant and grantee technical assistance, RFP support, environmental documentation, and site inspections. Environmental impacts at the locations have to be evaluated. Environmental documentation (NEPA Categorical Exclusion (CATEX) will need to be completed prior to the start of construction. Environmental Review procedures are to follow MnDOT’s transportation project development process: Project Development – MnDOT. Open to all consultants (RFP / Quick Call for Proposals).

Minnesota DOT in Minnesota is using this solicitation to procure engineering work. Public agencies typically advertise this kind of work as a Request for Proposals (RFP), evaluating bidders on a combination of qualifications, technical approach, and price. Bidders responding to a engineering solicitation in Minnesota are generally expected to provide proof of liability insurance and workers' compensation coverage, hold any state license or trade certification required for the scope of work, and post performance and payment bonds for contracts above the agency's threshold.
Federal-aid funding flowing through programs such as the Federal Highway Administration, FEMA, or the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act brings additional compliance requirements on solicitations like this one, including Davis-Bacon prevailing wage, Buy America provisions where applicable, and Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) participation goals set by the issuing agency. PublicBidSearch indexes this solicitation alongside other open bids in Minnesota so contractors and vendors can compare active opportunities by category, agency, or location without monitoring each procurement portal individually.
To submit a proposal for this RFP, review the full solicitation documents for Minnesota DOT's exact scope of work, submission format, and any mandatory pre-bid meeting or site visit. Responses must be received before the July 14, 2026 deadline — public agencies routinely reject late submissions regardless of cause. Confirm how the agency accepts responses — through an electronic procurement portal, as a sealed hard-copy bid, or by email — because the required method varies by agency and a non-conforming submission can be disqualified. Vendors that have not previously contracted with Minnesota DOT should confirm whether registration on the agency's vendor system is required to be eligible for award.
