The document is a Cost Sheet for Request for Proposal #120910 O5 issued by the Nebraska Department of Administrative Services State Purchasing Bureau for Racing and Gaming Consultant Services to support the Nebraska Racing and Gaming Commission (NRGC). The solicitation seeks a consultant to develop comprehensive auditing processes for Authorized Gaming Operator financial records, create detailed policies and procedures, and analyze current workflows. The proposal is due on April 3, 2025, at 2:00 PM Central Time, with an anticipated contract start date of July 1, 2025, and an initial two-year contract term. The project requires developing an audit program, implementing new audit processes, establishing evaluation mechanisms, and producing regular updates and comprehensive reports.

The cost sheet includes pricing for four primary deliverables across two initial contract years: developing and implementing an audit program, finance department analysis, step-by-step plan and initial report, and a final comprehensive report. Optional supplemental services are available with hourly rates for positions such as Gaming Consultant. Pricing must remain fixed for the first two years, with any subsequent price increase requests limited to 10% and submitted at least 120 days before the current contract period ends. The contract requires all-inclusive pricing incorporating travel and out-of-pocket expenses. Evaluation will follow a 100-point scoring system: 25 points for Corporate Overview, 65 points for Technical Approach, and 10 points for Cost Sheet, with potential additional points from oral interviews. Bidders must demonstrate they are not currently providing services to an Authorized Gaming Operator and commit to avoiding such conflicts during the contract period.
