Continuity of operations and continuity of government (COOP/COG)

The City of Norcross, Georgia is seeking proposals for the development of a continuity of operations/continuity of government (COOP/COG) plan that addresses the operations of up to twelve (12) City departments. The COOP/COG plan is a vital element of the City's preparedness program and will assist with quickly restoring the City's mission essential functions (MEFs) following a disruption of operations. The project will be executed in four phases over a 10-month timeline, including project initiation, operational analysis, drafting the COOP/COG plan, and finalizing the plan. The successful vendor will be required to provide deliverables such as a project work plan, department consultations, a draft COOP/COG plan, and a final walkthrough of the plan. Proposals are due by January 26, 2024 at 11:00 am, and will be evaluated based on experience and qualifications (35%), implementation plan (25%), cost proposal (25%), and references (15%).

The City does not have any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. There is no information provided about any incumbent vendors or current contractors, nor any existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The RFP does not specify a budget range, but the City intends to issue a fixed-price by deliverables contract, with all pricing to be known upfront.
