WHAT THEY WANT

(Summarized from the RFP)

The City of Sacramento's Economic Development Department is seeking a qualified consultant to assess the feasibility of three potential small business programs: a Legacy Business Preservation Program, a Heritage Tourism Program, and a Social Enterprise Incubator Program. The consultant will examine comparable programs in other jurisdictions, judge how well each could be adapted to Sacramento, and recommend whether and how the City should launch one or more pilot programs. The work must be completed within six months and a not-to-exceed budget of $40,000.
