The Los Angeles Community College District is procuring a five‑year professional services agreement for a Bond Program Monitor (BPM) to independently oversee, investigate, and report on the district’s bond‑funded construction programs (Propositions A & AA; Measures J, CC, LA). The BPM will establish a dedicated office, operate a 24/7 whistle‑blower hotline, produce quarterly and annual reports, conduct investigations of alleged fraud, waste, or abuse, and coordinate with the Chancellor, Board of Trustees, and oversight committees. The contract is structured around “all‑in” hourly rates for senior personnel (BPM, Deputy BPM, Senior Examiner, Senior Investigator) and includes reimbursable expenses; fee caps will be negotiated after award. The solicitation required extensive certifications (conflict‑of‑interest, vendor code of conduct, non‑collusion) and mandatory disclosures for key staff. The award was made to Affiliated Monitors, Inc. pending Board approval.
