Strategic Planning, Implementation and Development Services

The agency is seeking comprehensive organizational development, strategic planning, operational readiness, and implementation support services to launch a new Office of Housing and Community Development. This initiative aims to consolidate and streamline existing housing, neighborhood stabilization, homelessness response, grant administration, revitalization, and community development efforts into a centralized and strategically aligned structure. The goal is to create a cohesive organizational framework that improves efficiency, accountability, service delivery, and long-term strategic impact. The selected consultant will perform departmental development and strategic implementation consulting services, as well as facilitate strategic planning services related to the development and long-term operation of the new office. This scope includes establishing a vision statement and defining strategic priorities to support the successful development and operational launch. The new office will ultimately serve as the central entity responsible for advancing housing access, community revitalization, equitable development, homelessness initiatives, neighborhood stabilization efforts, economic partnerships, and housing-related grant coordination. Eligible bidders must be onshore organizations based solely in the United States. The contract period will span one year, and the agency requires all performance of the work to be conducted offsite. The agency is currently looking for proposals to determine the budget for this initiative. The agency has scheduled a non-mandatory pre-bid meeting for June 18, 2026. Bidders must submit all questions regarding this opportunity no later than June 24, 2026.
