Federal Affairs Representation Services

The Salem Area Mass Transit District is seeking a contractor to provide federal affairs representation services. The agency requires legislative, funding, and regulatory support to advance its interests at the federal level. To ensure proper oversight and coordination, the selected representative must submit regular progress reports and a structured work plan. The scope of work covers offsite performance, meaning the representative will conduct the advocacy and support activities from their own offices rather than the agency's location in Salem, Oregon. Eligible organizations must be based in the United States, as the agency will only consider onshore bidders. The agency has not disclosed a set budget and is looking for cost proposals from interested parties to determine the financial scope. Specific key dates and detailed evaluation criteria are not specified in the initial solicitation, meaning interested parties must submit their qualifications and proposed work plans for review based on the outlined representation needs.
