RFQ Work Group Contractor Short List – TF Member Roster phone meeting to confirm the short list on June 13th, 2018

The RFQ work group held a deep and thorough conversation analyzing and exploring the facets of proposals and teams to select a short list (from among seven bidders: Enviroissues, George Schneider & Associates, Hart Crowser, The Langdon Group, Ross Strategic, Strategic Earth Consulting, White Bluffs Consulting). As agreed at its May meeting, the Task Force will hold a phone meeting on June 13th to confirm or adjust the short list of candidates to invite for in-person presentations and Q&A at the regular Task Force meeting on June 27th, ,2018.

A week from today, on June 13th, from 10 am-12 noon, Bud Leber will be prepared to walk the Task Force through the process the work group used and the considerations involved. The Task Force roster members will be receiving a separate email with the short list once references have been checked. Roster members will also recieve a summary of the work group’s thinking and meeting call in information. We will be asking the voting members of the Task Force to confirm the work group’s recommendation.
