RFP - DEVELOPMENT AND MODERNIZATION SERVICES
Solicitation # BD-27-1134-CHA01-CHA01-131502
The Cambridge Housing Authority (CHA) is seeking up to three qualified consultants or consultant teams to provide professional and technical services supporting the development and modernization of affordable housing projects in Massachusetts. The solicitation, issued under BD-27-1134-CHA01-CHA01-131502, focuses on activities including financial and feasibility analyses, proforma development, project management, and due diligence preparation aligned with Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 149 and 149A, as well as federal requirements under 24 CFR Part 85.36. Work must be performed in Cambridge, Massachusetts, with all deliverables—including construction drawings, reports, surveys, and studies—submitted in both hard copy and digital formats compatible with Microsoft Office and AutoCAD, becoming the exclusive property of CHA upon submission. The contract has a one-year base term with the possibility of four one-year extensions, contingent on funding and performance, with a maximum annual fee of $250,000 and an additional 25% allowance for extra services. Proposal submissions must be received by 2:00 p.m. on August 10, 2026, at CHA’s central office by mail or hand delivery; email and fax submissions are not permitted. Proposals must be divided into separate qualification and cost envelopes, with the cost proposal sealed and labeled distinctly. Offerors are required to submit a non-collusive affidavit and must provide a Massachusetts tax compliance certificate prior to contract execution. All personnel, including subcontractors, must pass criminal background checks, and subcontractors require prior CHA approval. The evaluation process follows a trade-off methodology to determine the most advantageous offer, weighing experience in MGL Chapter 149/149A construction, affordable housing development, and the ability to prepare required documentation equally against cost efficiency, which is assessed using a ratio-based methodology comparing proposed hourly rates to the lowest submitted rate. No explicit weighting is assigned, but the selection will prioritize qualifications alongside cost. CHA mandates strict compliance with federal and state regulations, including debarment certifications, prohibitions on commissions and kickbacks, and the requirement that CHA and any affiliated LIHTC LLCs be named as additional insureds on all insurance policies. Contractors are prohibited from acquiring any property interest related to the work and may not assign the contract without written consent. Diversity and inclusion are strongly encouraged, with preferences given to minority-owned, women-owned, and HUD Section 3-certified
