NEW RFQ MCI Plan

Lane County Emergency Management is seeking a consultant to develop a comprehensive Mass Casualty Incident (MCI) Plan through a Request for Quotes (RFQ) procurement process. The selected vendor will be responsible for collecting existing jurisdictional plans and collaborating with local partners including Ambulance Service Areas, Hospitals, Fire Departments, and Law Enforcement agencies to create a county-level MCI Plan. Key deliverables include monthly updates to Lane County Emergency Management, a draft review to be submitted by January 13, 2023, and a final product due by February 3, 2023. Qualified consultants must submit quotes that detail their company information, professional qualifications, proposed approach to stakeholder information gathering, comprehensive project timeline, and commitment to regular meetings with County Emergency Management. The RFQ requires vendors to demonstrate expertise in emergency planning and the ability to effectively coordinate with multiple local agencies. Quotes must be submitted via email by October 10, 2022, at 5 pm, with Lane County reserving the right to negotiate scope of services and contract pricing with the selected vendor.

The RFQ does not explicitly specify set-aside designations or restrictions on respondent organization types. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are mentioned in the documentation. The contract has a defined maximum budget of $25,000, representing the total available funding for the MCI Plan development. While specific evaluation criteria are not exhaustively detailed, the RFQ implies that vendor qualifications, proposed methodology, project timeline, and demonstrated understanding of local emergency management needs will be key factors in vendor selection. The procurement appears open to a wide range of consulting firms with expertise in emergency planning and interagency coordination. Lane County's approach suggests a competitive, merit-based selection process focused on finding the most qualified and capable consultant to develop a comprehensive Mass Casualty Incident Plan that meets the county's specific emergency management requirements.
