This is a Request for Services (RFS) document issued by the County of Los Angeles, Executive Office of the Board of Supervisors, in conjunction with a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for ethics consulting services. The County seeks qualified CAPSMA (Consulting and Professional Services Master Agreement) contractors to provide on-call ethics commission and ethics office development and strategic advisory consulting services to support the establishment and implementation of a County Ethics Commission and Ethics Office aligned with Measure G objectives. Vendors must respond to both the RFQ and RFS concurrently to be considered for a CAPSMA award. Required RFQ submissions include the Vendor's Organization Questionnaire/Affidavit, Certification of Compliance, Debarment History and Terminated Contracts List, Community Business Enterprise Information, References List, Contribution and Agent Declaration Form, Supplemental Financial Information if applicable, Declaration Financial Statements, and Certificate of Insurance. Required RFS submissions include the Response Cover Sheet, Response to Requested Information, References, and Staffing and Pricing Schedule.

The document does not specify pricing terms, contract amounts, response or due dates, site visits, bidder conferences, or award dates in the provided excerpt. The RFS is structured as a work order with qualified CAPSMA contractors to be issued as needed, indicating a flexible, on-call arrangement rather than a fixed-term contract with specific deliverables. The engagement emphasizes the need for expertise in commission structure design, best practices in public-sector ethics oversight, and support for the County's transparency, accountability, and integrity initiatives. Community Business Enterprise participation is required as part of the submission process.
