Davis Conference Center Consulting Services

Davis County, Utah, issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) on February 11, 2026, with a submission deadline of February 19, 2026, seeking independent consulting services to support the evaluation and renegotiation of the Davis Conference Center's management agreement. The procurement targets qualified consulting firms capable of providing comprehensive advisory support throughout the agreement lifecycle. The scope of work encompasses reviewing the current management agreement and identifying recommended updates and negotiation priorities, conducting comparable agreement research and market benchmarking analysis, performing stakeholder interviews and summarizing findings, providing direct negotiation support including assistance with term sheets and memoranda of understanding (MOU) language, and conducting additional research and analysis as needed to support county decision-making. Deliverables should include a recommended scope of work with optional add-ons, a detailed project approach with anticipated timeline, proposed team composition demonstrating relevant experience, and flexible fee structure options such as fixed fee arrangements, hourly rates with not-to-exceed caps, or retainer-based compensation. Proposals must be submitted through the Bonfire platform and should include fee structure assumptions and case studies of similar engagements completed by the responding firm. Davis County has not specified an award date, contract term length, or formal evaluation criteria in the available documentation.

The RFP documentation does not identify any set-aside designations, disadvantaged enterprise preferences, or restrictions limiting the types of organizations eligible to respond. No incumbent vendor information or current contractor details have been disclosed in the available materials. Similarly, no specific funding amount or budget range has been established for this engagement, with Davis County remaining open to various fee structures based on consultant recommendations and the proposed scope of work. The flexible pricing approach suggests the county prioritizes value and relevant experience over predetermined budget constraints. Proposers should note that while submission and due date information is available, Davis County has not published schedules for questions, bidders' meetings, or other procedural milestones in the disclosed documentation.
