Contract source

Description

This contract is a Formal Request for Qualifications (RFQ) issued by Cuyahoga County’s Department of Purchasing to secure State Advocacy services. The County seeks an agency or organization capable of representing its interests before the State of Ohio, including lobbying, policy monitoring, and legislative liaison activities. Interested parties must become “plan‑holders of record” to obtain the full specifications and any subsequent addenda, and must submit their proposals by the May 17 2023 deadline either electronically through the Supplier Portal or via hard‑copy delivery. No vendor has been publicly identified despite the portal indicating an award, and no financial figures are disclosed in the public notice. • Scope: State advocacy/lobbying on behalf of Cuyahoga County. • Submission deadline: May 17 2023 11:00 AM (electronic or hard‑copy). • Access: Obtain full RFQ package by contacting the Department of Purchasing (216‑443‑7200). • Award status: Portal shows “Awarded” but vendor details are missing.

Contract value

$250,000

The solicitation does not disclose a budget. State‑advocacy contracts for a county of Cleveland’s size typically range from a few hundred thousand dollars up to low‑single‑digit millions, depending on the scope (e.g., number of legislative sessions covered, staff hours, and deliverables). Given that the RFQ seeks a single vendor to provide ongoing advocacy services without specifying a multi‑year term, a reasonable ball‑park estimate would be between $200,000 and $400,000 for a one‑year effort. This estimate reflects typical market rates for lobbying firms serving large municipal clients in Ohio.
