Upcoming Requests for Proposals

The list of upcoming Requests for Proposals (RFPs) is intended to provide summarized data of anticipated RFPs to be released by various County Departments. The RFPs may be in various stages of drafting and departments often update and refine RFP language up to the point of issuance. The Anticipated Solicitation Issue Date is an estimate and subject to change. If the date changes, or if the RFP is cancelled, it will be noted on the next report to the Board of Supervisors.

The report is presented at the second Board of Supervisors (BOS) meeting of the month.
