MARC is seeking an experienced consultant to develop a regional transportation vulnerability and resiliency plan tailored to the Kansas City region. The purpose of the plan is to create a set of analytical tools, criteria, and decision-making supports to substantially increase the ability of the community and the multimodal transportation system to withstand, recover and bounce forward from disruptive events such as flooding, drought, and extreme heat. The framework will protect long-term investments by federal, state, and local government in transportation infrastructure. The framework also will identify how existing transportation infrastructure contributes to regional risks and vulnerabilities, such as urban heat islands and flooding, and develop appropriate mitigation strategies. The subject RFP is intended to complete the second phase of a two-part planning process. The work will build from a phase one report consisting of a summary of public outreach, including steering committee and focus group meetings, a proposed narrative for future grant funding, a proposed screening and project prioritization matrix, and a tiered framework strategy for a future resilience improvement plan. To complete the second phase of the plan, an inventory of existing assets and hazard identification will be completed to create a comprehensive catalog of transportation infrastructure (roads, bridges, transit systems, etc.) and identify key natural hazards (extreme heat, drought, flooding, extreme winter weather, etc.) and match them with assets at highest risk. The asset inventory, combined with a criticality determination and risk assessment, will be analyzed to produce a profile of regional risk, including economic, operational, and social consequences. Insights from the assessment will be translated into actionable recommendations for infrastructure upgrades, emergency preparedness, and long-term resilience strategies which will be integrated into existing planning tools such as the Transportation Improvement Program and ConnectedKC 2050. ## Details **Bid Opening Date:** 2026-05-29T17:00:00 **Estimated Budget:** $450,000.00 **Fiscal Year:** 2026 **Solicitation Number:** RFP-05012026-T&E MARC-0-2026/DN **Bid Number:** 05012026-T&E MARC **Bid Type:** RFP - Request for Proposals **Document Distribution Method:** Download **Document Distribution Notes:** None **Distribution Options:** Bid has no blueprints associated with it **Electronic Bidding:** Yes **County:** Jackson County **Planholders:** 9
