For future task orders, the City may select a firm from the roster based on the City's determination of which firm most closely meets the requirements of the specific project. This determination will include considerations such as the firm's specialization, experience, personnel, and availability. The City will notify the firm and negotiate the scope of work and compensation which will be formalized into a task order to the master agreement. This master agreement does not prevent the City from issuing a separate RFQ for any particular project. The resultant master agreement will not be a guarantee that the City will purchase services from any or all firms on the roster.

All questions and requested clarifications from individuals or firms shall be made in writing via email to Ryan Morgan at the following address: bids@staridaho.org. Questions and clarifications shall be submitted no later than 5:00 PM January 4, 2023. Questions and clarifications will be shared, if pertinent, along with their responses on the City's website. Objective: The objective of this RFQ is to provide sufficient information to enable qualified respondents to submit written SOQs. This RFQ is not a contractual offer or commitment to purchase services. Contents of this RFQ and the respondent's SOQ will be used to establish an on-call roster of consultants. It is to be understood that this RFQ and the respondent's SOQ may be attached or included in an agreement between the City and successful respondent. Utilization of Selected Firms: The City does not guarantee utilization of agreements resulting from this RFQ. Actual utilization will be based upon demand for services or other factors deemed important to the City. Any work under a master agreement will be by a task order to that master agreement. Funding Availability: By responding to this RFQ, your firm acknowledges that for any agreement signed as a result of this RFQ, the authority to proceed with the work is contingent upon the availability of funding.

The City reserves the right to request insurance certificates naming the City as an additional insured on subsequent task orders. The Proposer will be responsible for all costs incurred in preparing or responding to this RFQ. All materials and documents submitted in response to the RFQ become the property of the City and will not be returned. All responses, inquiries, and correspondence relating to the RFQ and all reports, charts, coverage maps, displays, schedules, exhibits, and other documentation produced by the proposer that are submitted as part of the proposal shall become the property of the City after the submission deadline.
