Contents: an executive summary describing the firm (no more than three pages); a summary aligned with the Detailed Scope of Services covering qualifications, experience, availability, proposed approach and key personnel including the proposed lead advisor (up to 10 pages plus collateral examples); resumes of staff dedicated 50% or more to the VCE scope; previous experience with CCAs, counties, cities, local agencies or utilities; a list of current clients that could pose a conflict of interest and how it would be resolved; any litigation filed in the past five years; other factors that should influence selection; a minimum of three references similar in scope and organizational environment; and proposed hourly rates or an alternative staffing and fee structure.
