RPOSD RFSQ For As-Needed Consultant Services

The Los Angeles County Regional Park and Open Space District (RPOSD) issued a Request for Statement of Qualifications (RFSQ) in June 2025, solicitation number RPOSD-CONSULTANTS-2025-16, to establish a prequalified pool of consultants to provide a broad range of as-needed services through a Master Agreement and Work Order structure. This solicitation aims to support RPOSD’s mission in parks, recreation, and open space preservation funded primarily through Measure A. The services sought cover diverse categories including communication and event support, community outreach, document digitization and management, financial and assessment support, GIS and mapping, grant writing, management consulting, park planning and policy, program evaluation and compliance, project technical assistance, and website development and design. The Master Agreement term extends through August 30, 2030, with vendors able to submit Statements of Qualifications until February 28, 2030, enabling rolling submissions during this period. Consultants selected will enter into Master Agreements under which RPOSD will issue individual Work Orders defining specific scopes, deliverables, and schedules. Each Work Order’s Statement of Work is developed at RPOSD’s discretion, reflecting project needs and compliance with applicable California Public Resources Code and the RPOSD Grants Administration Manual. Consultants are required to identify key personnel and demonstrate qualifications, with mandatory WebVen registration and adherence to conflict of interest provisions and legal compliance requirements such as immigration verification. Submissions must follow a structured SOQ format, including executive summaries and project examples, and be submitted in PDF format via email. Payment is processed via electronic funds transfer, and performance evaluation focuses on satisfactory completion of Work Orders. While pricing and award evaluation details are not specified, the contract provides a flexible IDIQ-type framework to efficiently engage specialized consultants across multiple services supporting the County’s park and open space initiatives.
