The City of Saint Paul is soliciting proposals for a comprehensive housing study to evaluate the implementation and enforcement of its rent stabilization policy, with an emphasis on tenant protections, housing affordability, and long-term supply trends. The contract, identified as RFP-CITY COUNCIL-HOUSING STUDY 2026 with solicitation number 1737, has a total budget ceiling of $100,000, with a base scope estimated between $65,000 and $70,000, and optional add-ons available for neighborhood-level analysis, affordable housing inventory, and modeled projections through 2060. Proposals must be submitted via the Supplier Portal at www.stpaulbids.com no later than 3:00 p.m. Central Time on Wednesday, September 9, 2026, and must include a separately submitted Excel Cost Form and a technical proposal that addresses evaluation factors including project understanding, relevant experience, housing policy expertise, team qualifications, work plan realism, cost reasonableness, and community engagement. The successful vendor will be required to deliver a full written report, a public-accessible summary, a presentation to the City Council, and all underlying data files within a nine-month performance period beginning October 2026. The solicitation mandates strict compliance with city-specific procurement rules and affirmative action requirements. Bidders must submit a completed Affirmative Action Plan using the City’s template, pay a $75 certification fee, and confirm adherence to Saint Paul Legislative Code Chapter 183 and related federal and state debarment restrictions. A Financial Interest Affidavit proving no undue financial conflicts is required, and contractors must comply with the Vendor Outreach Program by submitting a VOP Questionnaire and Prime/Sub ID Sheet to promote participation from CERT-certified small, minority-owned, and woman-owned businesses. Proposals are scored on a 100-point weighted system, with technical merits carrying the highest value, and failure to meet mandatory submission formats, including separate cost and technical volumes, may result in rejection. All communications must occur through the Supplier Portal; direct contact with city staff is prohibited. Contract administration is overseen by the Department of Human Rights and Equal Economic Opportunity, with payments made payable to the City of St. Paul and remitted to its designated address.
