Addendum #1 - COS Animal Services Operational Assessment

The City of Salina is seeking a qualified firm to conduct a comprehensive operational assessment of its Animal Services department. The contractor will receive immediate access to staff and operational data, analyze current shelter processes, and deliver a draft report within roughly one month. The scope is limited to internal review—no community stakeholder interviews are required—and the city has expressed flexibility on the schedule if additional time is needed. This is a modest‑budget consulting effort ideal for firms experienced in animal‑shelter operations and management consulting. • Conduct an internal operational review of Salina Animal Services. • Analyze shelter workflows, staffing, and data systems; produce a draft report by mid‑May 2026. • Budget expected between $20,000 and $30,000; schedule flexible beyond the one‑month baseline.
