Procurement information
How Michigan automotive work gets procured.
The common contracting vehicles for automotive engineering and construction in Michigan. Match your scope, schedule, and risk profile to the vehicle before issuing an RFQ.
Michigan agency RFP / RFQ
Public-sector automotive scopes are typically procured through Michigan agency RFP or RFQ vehicles, with pre-qualification and SBE/DBE participation requirements.
Federal IDIQ vehicles
Federally funded automotive programs (DOE, DOT, USACE, EPA) are commonly executed under IDIQ contracts with task-order pricing on Michigan sites.
Master Service Agreements
Operators in Michigan engage engineering and EPC firms under multi-year MSAs covering capital, sustaining, and emergency response automotive scopes.
EPC and EPCM
Greenfield and major brownfield automotive projects in Michigan are routinely delivered under lump-sum EPC or reimbursable EPCM contracts with a single integrated team.
Owner's engineer
Owners retain independent automotive P.E.s in Michigan for design review, constructability, schedule and cost validation, and on-site representation through commissioning.
Direct P.E. engagement
Smaller Michigan automotive scopes — feasibility, study, peer review, expert testimony — are engaged directly with a licensed P.E. on a time-and-materials or fixed-fee basis.
Typical fee range
$automotive engineering fees in Michigan typically run 4–10% of TIC for greenfield work and 8–15% for brownfield/modernization scopes.
Lead time
Expect 2–6 weeks from RFQ to a signed engagement for well-scoped Michigan automotive work; complex EPC awards typically run 8–16 weeks.
Compliance
Michigan requires P.E. licensure on sealed deliverables; firms must hold a Michigan Certificate of Authorization where applicable.
