Summary of Request for Services Document

This Request for Services (RFS) document pertains to the County of Los Angeles, specifically the Executive Office of the Board of Supervisors and the Chief Sustainability Office, which is soliciting qualified contractors to provide policy and research services supporting the 2025 OurCounty Plan initiatives. The RFS is being issued concurrently with a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for a Consulting and Professional Services Master Agreement (CAPSMA). Vendors must respond to both the RFQ and RFS to be considered for a CAPSMA contract and are eligible to receive work orders on an as-needed basis. Required submissions for the RFQ include the Vendor's Organization Questionnaire/Affidavit, Certification of Compliance, Debarment History and List of Terminated Contracts, Community Business Enterprise Information, List of References, Contribution and Agent Declaration Form, Supplemental Financial Information if applicable, Declaration Financial Statements, and Certificate of Insurance. For the RFS submission, vendors must provide a Response Cover Sheet, Response to Requested Information, References, and Staffing and Pricing Schedule.

The document does not specify detailed pricing terms, set-asides, incumbent information, or specific funding amounts and sources within the provided excerpt. The RFS establishes a master agreement framework under which qualified vendors will be available to provide as-needed services rather than specifying a single project with fixed deliverables or timelines. Prospective vendors must meet qualification standards outlined in both the RFQ and RFS documents and demonstrate relevant experience through references and organizational credentials. The master agreement structure allows the County flexibility in engaging services as policy and research needs arise related to the sustainability initiatives.
