Consulting Services for Evaluation of Sports Stadium Development Proposals

The City of Green Bay, Wisconsin is issuing a Request for Information (RFI) seeking qualified consulting firms to provide advisory services for the evaluation of sports stadium and sports-anchored mixed-use development proposals. This procurement is issued for planning and informational purposes only and does not constitute a binding solicitation or guarantee of contract award. The City has signed a Letter of Intent with the United Soccer League to explore bringing professional men's and women's soccer teams to Green Bay, which has initiated a 10-month exclusive negotiation period for a new multi-purpose stadium and entertainment district. The City is seeking independent technical, financial, and strategic advisory services in multiple areas including proposal evaluation, public finance and risk analysis, economic and fiscal impact review, site and development feasibility, negotiation strategy support, and governance structure evaluation. Respondents must submit PDF responses not exceeding ten pages (excluding resumes and supporting materials) electronically to the City of Green Bay Purchasing Department by June 17, 2026, at 2:00 PM CDT, with questions due by June 3, 2026. Required qualifications include demonstrated experience advising public-sector clients on stadium and mixed-use development proposals, and responses should include firm overview information, up to five representative projects, descriptions of independent review approaches, example deliverables, identified project team members with relevant experience, and estimated cost structures for preliminary proposal evaluation, feasibility-level advisory services, and negotiation support services.

The City encourages participation from disadvantaged, minority-owned, women-owned, and veteran-owned businesses, though no specific set-asides or restrictions limiting participation to particular business categories are identified in the RFI. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are referenced in this opportunity. The City reserves the right to modify or cancel the RFI, request additional information, conduct interviews, or use the information to structure future procurement processes without obligation to proceed with subsequent solicitations. No costs incurred by respondents in preparing RFI responses will be reimbursed by the City. Budget ranges or possible award values are not disclosed in the available RFI documents, as this is an informational procurement designed to assess available consulting resources and inform potential future Requests for Qualifications or Requests for Proposals.
