Description

The Atlanta Regional Commission seeks one or more firms to support its federal government affairs work. Services include developing annual strategic recommendations; advising on federal legislative and policy matters; coordinating outreach, meetings, testimony, and briefing materials; and monitoring and reporting on congressional, executive-branch, and judicial developments relevant to the Commission. The consultant must provide timely updates, attend monthly virtual meetings, submit monthly written reports, prepare annual reviews and plans, and collaborate with other Commission consultants as needed. The scope also requires an orientation session in Atlanta within the first 90 days and an in-person strategic planning session in Atlanta at least once per year. The initial performance period is March 8, 2027, through September 30, 2028, with two possible two-year extensions. Proposals must include firm and subcontractor identification, lead-firm contact information, narratives and experience information, a proposed budget, the most recent firm audit and findings, potential conflicts and resolutions, litigation information for the past five years, and other pertinent information. Respondents must also complete the attached debarment/lobbying certification, Georgia Security and Immigration Compliance Act affidavit, and Contractor/Vendor Information form. The Commission encourages participation by minority-, women-, small-, and disadvantaged-business enterprises but does not establish a set-aside.
