About this file

This file is a Price Proposal template for RFP 4200 BRS3011REBID issued by the City of Austin, Texas, for professional legislative state and federal lobbying services. The solicitation seeks qualified individuals or firms to provide lobbying services with pricing structured as a monthly retainer rate. The initial contract term runs from July 1, 2027, through September 30, 2027 (three months), with six optional one-year extensions available through September 30, 2033. Offerors must indicate which lobbying services they offer: state lobbying services only, federal lobbying services only, or both state and federal lobbying services. The City reserves the right to award a single contract or multiple contracts based on criteria deemed most advantageous to the City. Procurement Specialist Bridney Stewart is responsible for this solicitation.

Pricing shall be submitted as a fixed monthly retainer rate that remains constant throughout each month, including months when the legislature is not in session. The maximum monthly retainer rate cannot exceed $14,000.00 and must be all-inclusive of all fees necessary to complete the Scope of Work. Contractors are prohibited from charging separately for administrative costs, overhead, per diem, transportation, travel time, fuel surcharges, mileage, or any other fees, and must provide all required labor, travel, and equipment. Offerors may also submit pricing for non-specified additional services not called for in the Scope of Work on an hourly basis; however, this Category 2 pricing will not be used in the award determination and the City makes no guarantee of purchasing such additional services. Offerors must not alter the Price Proposal or use it to include exceptions to any portion of the solicitation.
