This is an Addendum Form related to the City of Phoenix Water Services Department's Request for Qualifications (RFQu-26-0077) for Organizational Change Management services. The addendum extends the offer due date to October 18, 2022 at 2:00 p.m. and provides a template for documenting vendor inquiries, responses, and solicitation changes. The document includes sections for questions and answers submitted by potential respondents and specifies that offerors must acknowledge receipt and acceptance of the addendum through the City's Procurement Portal. The form maintains all remaining specifications and instructions from the original solicitation, which seeks to establish a Qualified Vendor List of consulting firms with expertise in organizational change management initiatives targeting technology implementations, process improvements, and cultural change efforts within water utility operations.

The addendum confirms that vendors must demonstrate a minimum of three years in business or five years of key personnel experience and have completed at least three similar OCM projects within the past five years. Proposed project teams must include Certified Change Practitioners, preferably with Prosci Methodology certification and bachelor's degrees or equivalent utility experience. The evaluation criteria consist of three equally weighted categories: Company History, Experience and Qualifications, and Methodology, each representing 33.3 percent of the total score. The contract is anticipated to commence around March 25, 2026, with a five-year base period and two potential one-year renewals. Contractors must meet substantial insurance requirements including Technology Errors and Omissions Liability ($1,000,000), Commercial General Liability ($2,000,000), and Network Security and Privacy Liability ($1,000,000). Pricing will be negotiated on a project-by-project basis with no guaranteed assignment volume provided to QVL members.
