University Consulting Alliance Pool

This Request for Quotes and Qualifications (RFQQ) is issued by the University of Washington to establish a pool of qualified vendors to provide "as needed" organizational consulting services for the University's Professional & Organizational Development (POD) Office. The scope of services includes change management, conflict resolution, diversity consultation, leadership coaching, and other organizational development offerings. Vendors must have at least 5 years of experience providing similar services, especially to higher education clients. Proposals are due by November 12, 2024, and the pool created will remain open for up to 6 years, with 2-year renewal periods. The RFQQ provides details on pricing, including the requirement for vendors to submit hourly rates, travel expense reimbursement, and any other associated charges. Vendor performance will be evaluated, and POD reserves the right to remove vendors from the pool based on unsatisfactory performance.

This RFQQ is open to vendors regardless of location, and the University does not have a target number of awards in mind, with the goal of covering the full scope of services with a diverse pool of vendors. The University emphasizes its commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion, and encourages participation from minority and women-owned businesses. No pricing methodology or set-aside requirements are specified, and there is no listed incumbent vendor or current contractor information provided. The University has not specified a budget range for this procurement.
