The City of College Park, Georgia, located in Fulton County, is seeking a qualified consultant to update its Comprehensive Plan through Request for Proposal (RFP 26-11). This procurement aims to develop a comprehensive land use vision document, with the last major update completed in 2016 and a minor update in 2021 by the Atlanta Regional Commission. The scope of work includes creating a detailed plan with multiple components such as an existing conditions assessment, community demographic profile, housing vision, economic development strategies, arts and culture integration, transportation strategy, and a community participation plan. Evaluation of proposals will be based on technical merit (60 points) and cost proposal (40 points), with specific criteria focusing on qualifications, references, experience, and overall suitability. Key dates include a non-mandatory pre-bid conference on August 27, 2025, with proposals due by September 16, 2025. The contract will be for one year with potential renewal options for four additional one-year periods, and the city intends to award the contract to the most responsive and responsible bidder, which may not necessarily be the lowest cost proposal. The City of College Park actively encourages participation from minority, woman-owned, and small business owners, implementing a local preference policy for businesses located within city limits. Proposers must submit comprehensive documentation including insurance certificates, E-verification affidavits, professional licenses, and references demonstrating ethical compliance. While a specific contract value is not explicitly stated, the comprehensive nature of the plan suggests a significant professional services engagement. Potential respondents must meet professional qualifications and demonstrate capability to develop a multifaceted municipal planning document. The procurement process emphasizes not just cost, but the technical expertise and strategic approach of the consulting team in creating a forward-looking comprehensive municipal plan that addresses diverse community needs and development strategies.
