Representation Services for Naming & Presenting Rights

The Tualatin Hills Park & Recreation District (THPRD) is seeking professional representation services to identify, negotiate, and secure naming and presenting rights partnerships, with a primary focus on the Howard M. Terpenning (HMT) Recreation Complex Campus. The Request for Proposals (RFP) targets firms capable of not only securing sponsorship opportunities but also mentoring district staff to build internal capacity for future initiatives. Proposing firms must demonstrate expertise in rights negotiations and provide at least three references from similar projects completed within the last five years. The proposal evaluation will utilize a 100-point scoring system, with points allocated as follows: Basic Qualifications (25 points), Ability to Perform (25 points), Performance History (20 points), Compensation and Fees (15 points), and Corporate Responsibility (15 points). Key dates include an optional pre-proposal conference on November 6, 2025, at 11 AM PT, proposal submissions due by 4:00 PM Pacific Time on December 8, 2025, and an anticipated Notice of Intent to Award on December 22, 2025. The RFP protest deadline is set for November 24, 2025, with the last addendum to be published on November 28, 2025.

The solicitation includes specific restrictions and requirements regarding potential conflicts of interest, particularly for clients in sectors such as alcohol, cannabis, firearms, and petroleum/fossil fuels. THPRD emphasizes corporate responsibility values, including racial equity, environmental stewardship, and community vision alignment. Proposing firms must disclose their current client list and provide detailed information about cost structures, including hourly rates, total anticipated costs, commission or retainer details, and reimbursable expenses. Insurance requirements include current policy limits for workers' compensation and commercial general liability coverage, and firms must complete a notarized non-collusion affidavit. While a specific contract value is not explicitly stated, the comprehensive requirements suggest a substantial and strategic partnership. The contract terms will conform to THPRD's Professional Services Agreement, with an anticipated contract start date in January 2026. The district serves over 270,000 residents across eastern Washington County, indicating a significant potential scope for naming and presenting rights opportunities.
