Consultant RFP

The Town of Plainfield, Connecticut, located in Tolland County, is seeking a consultant through a Request for Proposal (RFP) to provide administrative and technical support for the Town's Small Cities Housing Rehabilitation Loan Program. The selected consultant will be responsible for implementing and administering program activities, which likely include overseeing housing rehabilitation loan processes, ensuring program compliance, monitoring progress, and preparing necessary reports. The solicitation period runs from April 28, 2022, to June 2, 2022, with a vendor question and answer period open from April 28 to May 26, 2022. Interested vendors must submit their proposals by June 2, 2022, at 2:00 PM EDT. The primary contact for this RFP is Mary Ann Chinatti, who can be reached at 860-230-3028 or mchinatti@plainfieldct.org. While specific evaluation criteria are not detailed in the documents, the consultant will need to demonstrate expertise in housing program administration, technical support capabilities, and compliance management.

The RFP is open to all vendors without specific set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. No incumbent vendor information is provided, and there are no explicit details about existing infrastructure or technology integration requirements. The documents consistently indicate delivery terms as Free On Board Destination with vendor-specified payment terms. Notably, the estimated total value of the contract is not specified in any of the solicitation documents, which makes it challenging to determine the potential budget range or award value. The procurement is structured as a single-unit consultant RFP, suggesting the Town seeks one primary consultant to fulfill the administrative and technical support needs for the Small Cities Housing Rehabilitation Loan Program. Vendors are expected to provide a comprehensive proposal that outlines their approach to supporting the Town's housing rehabilitation initiatives.
