CITYWIDE CONSULTANT ROSTER: General Project and Program Management Consulting (Small Businesses Only)

Solicitation CTY-CR-2025-15 is a Request for Qualification to establish a Citywide Consultant Roster for General Project and Program Management Consulting, exclusively for small businesses. Under Seattle Municipal Code 20.50.100, this roster allows City departments to engage qualified consultants for specialized services without a formal competitive process for individual contracts estimated below 410,000 dollars. The scope of services includes project management studies, process redesign, evaluation, monitoring, scheduling, training, plan review, permitting, and expert witness services. To be deemed qualified, applicants must provide evidence of completing at least three relevant projects and confirm that key personnel possess the necessary professional licenses, certificates, and education. The application period is open from September 2, 2025, with a final response deadline of December 30, 2030. Selected consultants must maintain a Washington State Unified Business Identifier and adhere to specific insurance requirements, including premises operations and vehicle liability insurance naming the City of Seattle as an additional insured. The agreement incorporates federal cost principles under FAR Part 31 and requires compliance with local labor standards, including the Paid Sick and Safe Time Ordinance and minimum wage laws. Payment is issued within 30 calendar days of receiving a detailed invoice. While inclusion on the roster identifies a firm as qualified, it does not guarantee the award of any specific contract.
