About this opportunity
The City of Scranton, located in Lackawanna County, Pennsylvania, is soliciting proposals for Independent Audit and Single Audit Services through an electronic Request for Proposal (RFP) process. The procurement seeks a certified public accounting firm to conduct comprehensive post audits of the city's financial activities for fiscal years 2025, 2026, and 2027, with a potential one-year extension option. The audit scope encompasses examination and opinion on all governmental activities, business-type activities, major funds, pension funds, irrevocable trust funds, and federal programs under the Single Audit Act of 1984. Respondents must have a minimum of ten years of experience under their current business name and be registered with applicable federal, state, and local oversight bodies. Proposals will be evaluated based on five key criteria: completeness and quality of response (10%), responsiveness to requirements (25%), professional qualifications and experience (25%), proposed work plan (25%), and project fees and hourly rates (15%). The submission deadline is January 13, 2026, at 10:00 a.m., with proposals to be submitted electronically through the City's e-Procurement Portal, and questions must be submitted by January 9, 2026, at 5:00 p.m.
The RFP does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The incumbent auditor is CliftonLarsonAllen LLP, which performed the 2024 audit. The city's 2025 Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards is estimated at $14,395,477, including $11,000,000 in American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funding, with projected decreases in HUD funding and approximately $32,864,098 in ARPA spending anticipated for 2026. Respondents are required to carry professional liability insurance with minimum limits of $1,000,000 per occurrence and $1,000,000 aggregate. While a specific budget range is not explicitly stated, the complexity of the audit services and the substantial federal award expenditures suggest a significant contract value. The proposal requires detailed cost sheets demonstrating hours, labor costs, expenses, and total cost for each task, to be submitted on a time and materials, not-to-exceed basis.
