Additionally, the contractor will design and implement a transparent engagement process with Commerce, enabling tribes, utilities, developers, and community members to participate in the analysis development. The buyer requests proposals to determine the budget. Interested bidders must attend a pre-bid conference on September 3, 2026. The provided text contains no specific evaluation criteria.
