Compensation will be based on a maximum transactional‑fee schedule for bond‑related work and hourly rates or cost‑plus rates for non‑transactional services, with travel and out‑of‑pocket expenses reimbursed. The contract term is three years (Sept 2016‑Jun 2019) with two optional one‑year extensions. The procurement follows a full and open competition process, with Alaska‑based preferences applied to qualifying bidders.
