RFP for Technical Assistance with HUD Programs Consultant Community Project CCF

The Capitol Region Council of Governments (CRCOG) has issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) seeking a consultant to provide technical assistance with HUD Programs for a Community Project under the Community Connectivity Fund (CCF). The solicitation, targeting technical assistance services related to HUD programs, is open to all vendors and will operate from February 14, 2023, to March 14, 2023. Vendors may submit questions from February 14, 2023, at 9:15 AM EST through March 6, 2023, at 9:00 AM EST, with final proposals due by March 14, 2023, at 2:00 PM EDT. The RFP requires submissions through the CRCOG Bonfire Hub online platform (https://crcog.bonfirehub.com/), and while specific detailed qualifications are not enumerated, the procurement appears focused on obtaining professional consulting services to support HUD program implementation. Delivery terms are specified as Free On Board Destination, with payment terms to be determined by the selected vendor. The solicitation covers Hartford County, Connecticut, and seeks a consultant capable of providing comprehensive technical assistance for HUD-related community development initiatives.

No specific set-aside designations, disadvantaged enterprise requirements, or incumbent vendor information are explicitly outlined in the provided documentation. The RFP does not indicate any restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond, suggesting a fully open competitive process. Notably, the solicitation provides no estimated total contract value, budget range, or specific financial parameters. While the RFP mentions the HUD Community Compass Technical Assistance and Capacity Building Program as a potential funding source, no specific funding amounts are detailed. The lack of comprehensive financial information, line-item specifications, and precise scope of work suggests that CRCOG is seeking flexibility in vendor proposals and is primarily interested in identifying a qualified consultant who can provide adaptable technical assistance for HUD program implementation in the Hartford County region.
