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) to establish a master agreement pool of qualified consultants to provide a broad range of as-needed professional services. These services span multiple categories including communication and event support, community outreach, document digitization and management, financial and assessment support, GIS and mapping, grant writing and program materials development, management consulting, park planning and policy, program evaluation and compliance, project technical assistance, and website development and design. The solicitation, identified as RPOSD-CONSULTANTS-2025-11 and posted in June 2025, allows submissions on a rolling basis through February 2026, with contracts potentially lasting up to five years plus three optional one-year extensions. This contract framework does not specify pricing or line-item details up front but focuses on prequalification of vendors based on qualifications, experience, and completion of required forms and disclosures. The scope of work is defined in individual Statements of Work (SOWs) under the master agreement, which directs work orders at RPOSD's discretion. Vendors must demonstrate their capabilities and provide information on key personnel, organizational history, and past contracts, including disclosures of any terminated contracts and relationships with public entities to mitigate organizational conflicts of interest. Contract administration is conducted by RPOSD personnel with invoice submission by email, and payment is made electronically. Inspection and acceptance of work are based on satisfactory completion of deliverables per each work order without standardized federal contract clauses, reflecting a locally managed solicitation structure focused on flexibility and a wide range of consultant service categories suited to supporting RPOSD’s diverse operational requirements.
