CAO PERFORMANCE REVIEW

The Municipality of the County of Victoria is seeking qualified consultants to perform a comprehensive performance evaluation of its Chief Administrative Officer, with the additional responsibility of designing a formal, structured performance appraisal process and associated tools to support future evaluations by Council. The engagement requires the consultant to deliver a detailed assessment of the CAO’s performance against established criteria, identify strengths and areas for improvement, and propose a sustainable framework that Council can use consistently in subsequent cycles. All work must align with municipal policies and be completed within the specified timeline, with proposals due by May 29, 2026. The solicitation is administered through the Nova Scotia Procurement Portal, with all updated documents, addenda, and submission requirements available exclusively on that platform, as tender notices on CanadaBuys may not reflect recent amendments. Interested parties must register on the third-party hosting platform if required to access documents or submit responses, and any associated fees are the responsibility of the bidder. The contracting authority, Jackie Organ, serves as the primary point of contact and can be reached via email. The procurement does not involve any cost for acquiring documents, and while the contract duration is specified in the tender materials, the exact term is not detailed here. The notice is published under the solicitation number MOVC-PERFORMANCE-REVIEW and is categorized as a solicitation, though the agency listed as Government of Canada appears to be an error, as the procuring entity is clearly the Municipality of the County of Victoria.
