Provo Parks and Recreation Master Plan 2027 Update

Provo City is soliciting proposals for the development of the Provo Parks and Recreation Master Plan 2027 Update through a sealed Request for Proposals with solicitation number PR2026001031, posted on June 22, 2026, and due on July 10, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. MST. The project, managed by the Provo City Parks and Recreation Department, requires professional master planning services to assess current park systems, engage the community, and produce a comprehensive, actionable plan aligned with long-term city goals. Proposals must be submitted electronically via the Utah Public Procurement Place (U3P) portal as a single PDF file not exceeding 23 total pages, strictly following a required structure that includes a summary statement, team qualifications, past project examples, project schedule, proposed approach, local knowledge, cost estimation, and immigration status certification. Failure to comply with formatting, page limits, or submission protocols will result in rejection. The evaluation will be based on a weighted trade-off process, prioritizing understanding of the project at 25%, experience with similar projects at 20%, proposal quality and completeness at 20%, price quotation at 20%, and team capability at 15%. Contract requirements include mandatory disclosures of organizational conflicts of interest, proof of Utah business licensure, and compliance with Utah’s immigration status verification system (E-Verify), with failure to provide documentation leading to immediate disqualification. All key personnel must be identified with resumes and availability confirmed; any post-submission changes require written approval from the City and may constitute a material breach. The City retains full ownership of all deliverables, which become public records subject to disclosure. While no formal contract type or FAR clauses are specified, the anticipated agreement is a Professional Service Agreement, and the City reserves the right to reject any or all proposals, negotiate only with the top-ranked offeror, or cancel the solicitation without penalty. The place of performance is in Provo, Utah, and the project’s outcomes will guide infrastructure development, facility standards, and program delivery over the next decade, informed by municipal service benchmarks including park access radii, stormwater design criteria, and traffic level-of-service thresholds.
