4-Pricing Items- Consulting Cost Proposal.xlsx

This is a pricing proposal template for a consulting cost proposal submitted in response to an RFP for as-needed consulting services issued by AHA (Housing Authority) in California. The proposal requests hourly fee rates for up to nine specialized consulting areas: Risk Management and Insurance, Asset Management, Fair Housing, Moving to Work (MTW), Organizational Consulting and Executive Coaching, Housing Choice Voucher Program and Related PHA Consulting, Procurement Consulting, Tax Credit and Other Financial Application Services, and Housing Development Consulting. Bidders are required to provide hourly rates for each area in which they wish to bid, with separate fee schedules for each of the five contract years. Travel expenses must be itemized separately per Attachment F. Consultants handling tenant or employee personally identifiable information (PII) must maintain cyber liability insurance, with associated costs incorporated into their fee proposals.

The pricing structure requires bidders to demonstrate competitive hourly rates across the five-year contract period while accounting for any increased insurance costs related to PII handling and data security requirements. Bidders must have verifiable experience working with government agencies or nonprofit public housing authorities operating in California, or provide equivalent relevant experience documentation. AHA reserves the right to approve and contract with one or more bidders in each consulting area based on expertise, experience, proposed pricing, and availability, creating a qualified consultant pool from which work will be assigned on an as-needed basis rather than through a single awarded contract.
