About this opportunity

The City Attorney's Office of Colorado Springs is seeking outside counsel through a Request for Proposal (RFP) for legal services related to Peak Innovation Park and the Colorado Springs Airport. The procurement targets qualified law firms or individual attorneys licensed to practice in Colorado, with specialized expertise in real estate transactions, development matters, and construction agreements. Proposing attorneys must demonstrate comprehensive knowledge of municipal legal representation, with a focus on complex real estate and airport development projects. The RFP requires detailed proposals demonstrating attorneys' qualifications, background, experience representing municipal entities, and a robust conflict checking process. Proposals are due electronically on the BidNet Website by 4:30 PM MST on September 8, 2025, with an anticipated contract term from the effective date through January 2, 2025, and potential renewal for up to four additional option years. The expected workload is approximately 80-100 hours per month, with the selected attorney working closely with the City Attorney, Economic Development Director, and Airport Director.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises were explicitly mentioned in the RFP. The compensation structure is hourly-based, with rates not exceeding $400 per hour for senior attorneys, calculated on actual time spent on services. The City will provide an experienced paralegal to support transaction processes and will reimburse additional expenses such as court-related fees, expert service fees, and travel expenses, with meals reimbursed at GSA per diem rates. While no specific incumbent vendors were identified, the RFP emphasizes the importance of efficiency and cost-consciousness. The selected attorney will be required to execute a standard retention agreement and maintain professional liability insurance. Though a precise budget range was not specified, the anticipated monthly workload of 80-100 hours suggests a potential annual contract value in the range of $384,000 to $480,000, depending on the actual hourly rates and services rendered.
