About this opportunity

The Colorado Public Utilities Commission is engaging the Regulatory Assistance Project on a sole-source basis to conduct a modernization study mandated by HB26-1326, with a Phase I initial report due November 1, 2026. This is a non-competitive procurement; the Regulatory Assistance Project was selected without open bidding.

Phase I deliverables include baseline analysis of the PUC's current personnel structure, budget, and commissioner compensation; comparative analysis of at least five similar-sized state utility commissions; and initial scoping interviews with regulated utilities, intervenors, local government associations, and environmental groups. The initial report must be formatted for distribution to the Colorado State Legislature and stakeholders. Phase II scope — encompassing the final report due November 1, 2027 — will be established upon Phase I completion and review.

The contract addresses a legislative mandate to develop modernization recommendations covering PUC personnel structures, organizational design, budgetary frameworks, equity initiatives, and intervenor compensation. Work is performed for the Colorado Public Utilities Commission, with administrative oversight in Denver County and Denver City. The source document does not specify contract value, total budget, or funding source.
