Description

AI Generated

The Municipality of Chatham-Kent requires strategic plan consulting services to deliver a clear, actionable corporate roadmap featuring an updated vision, mission, value statements, and strategic priorities. The requested scope includes conducting a comprehensive analysis of existing strategies, local economic conditions, provincial funding advocacy strategies, community needs, and infrastructure pressures, as well as facilitating visioning sessions with the mayor and council. Work will be performed offsite. Eligibility is limited to Canadian organizations, and vendors must register on the Municipality's Bidding System Website to access the unwatermarked RFP. Applicants must electronically submit two separate PDF files through the bidding website—one containing the technical proposal requirements and executed Proposal Form “A”, and one for the fee schedule. The evaluation utilizes a two-envelope process, scoring technical proposals, price submissions, and short-listed respondent interviews to determine the best value. Questions must be submitted by October 30, 2026, and proposals must remain open for acceptance for ninety days following the submission deadline.
