This is a service / maintenance or supply contract in Oakland, California. Contact the soliciting agency for additional information.

An EPP staff will be assigned as Contract Manager for each Consultant contract. An EPP staff will also serve as Project Manager and provide project oversight and guidance for specific projects. The EPP project manager for a project will not necessarily be the EPP contract manager. Each project will be initiated by the EPP Project Manager and through collaboration with the Consultant, a detailed scope of work will be prepared that includes staffing, budget, and schedule. These components comprise a Technical Service Order (TSO), which provides written authorization and which, when signed by both the Port and the Consultant, is considered executed, serves as the Notice to Proceed, and binds the work to the terms of the TSO and Consultant contract. Neither the Consultant nor a subconsultant or subcontractor shall perform services or incur billable expenses prior to a TSO being executed. At times, an EPP staff may issue an informal RFP to more than one Consultant. If part of an informal RFP, the EPP Project Manager will select a consultant based on the informal RFP selection criteria to move forward in developing a TSO as described above.
