About this opportunity
The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) is issuing a Request for Proposals (RFP) for on-call Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) services across three distinct categories: consultation, facilitation, and training services. Proposers may submit bids for one or all three service categories, with the primary objective of providing comprehensive DEI support for the agency's Executive Leadership Team, managers, and staff. Proposers must demonstrate a minimum of three years of experience in their proposed service category and will be evaluated based on a pricing structure that weights organizational assessment and strategic plan elements at 40% each, with coaching and general consulting weighted at 20%. Key deliverables include potential organizational assessments, strategic planning, leadership coaching, and various training interventions. The RFP timeline includes a pre-proposal conference held on June 14, 2021, a deadline for questions and clarifications on June 25, 2021, and a proposal submission deadline of July 12, 2021 at 12PM PT. The agency anticipates issuing a notice of intent to award by August 6, 2021.
The RFP encourages proposals from minority-owned, woman-owned, service-disabled veteran-owned, and emerging small businesses, with requirements for proposers to demonstrate outreach efforts to certified firms for potential subcontracting opportunities. Proposers must be willing to report the identity and value of any subcontractors to the Oregon Certification Office for Business Inclusion and Diversity if awarded the contract. The contract will be structured as a price agreement with a total not-to-exceed value of $500,000, with an initial two-year term and potential renewals up to a total of five years. The agency has approximately 725 employees, and work will be performed on an as-needed basis during normal business hours, with no predetermined timeline or event sequencing. Proposers will need to provide average hourly rates for key personnel and be prepared to potentially develop additional training modules. The hybrid nature of services may include both virtual and in-person components, and out-of-state proposers will not receive a price preference.
