This is a Request for Services (RFS) document issued by the County of Los Angeles, Executive Office of the Board of Supervisors, soliciting qualified vendors through the Consulting and Professional Services Master Agreement (CAPSMA) framework to provide ethics commission and ethics office development and strategic advisory consulting services. The services aim to support the establishment and implementation of a County Ethics Commission and Ethics Office designed to align with the objectives of Measure G while incorporating best practices in public-sector ethics oversight. Vendors responding to this RFS must simultaneously submit responses to an accompanying Request for Qualifications (RFQ) to be considered for a CAPSMA. Qualifying vendors will receive a master agreement that enables them to provide on-call consulting services as needed. The submission requirements for the RFQ include vendor organization questionnaires, compliance certifications, debarment history documentation, community business enterprise information, reference lists, contribution and agent declaration forms, and supplemental financial information where applicable, along with certificates of insurance. The RFS submission requires completion of a response cover sheet, responses to requested information, references, and a staffing and pricing schedule.

The document does not specify pricing terms, set-asides, award dates, contract term lengths, or renewal options in the provided content. The solicitation does not identify an incumbent vendor or provide specific funding amounts, sources, or budget allocations. No response deadlines, bidders' conferences, site visits, or other procedural dates are detailed in this excerpt. The focus is on establishing a master agreement framework through which the County can access ethics consulting expertise on an as-needed basis to support governance transparency and accountability initiatives.
