This solicitation seeks professional services in two distinct categories for the Los Angeles Community College District: (1) Legislative and lobbying support to influence local‑government policy and (2) Community‑engagement and partnership‑building to foster relationships with nonprofits, agencies, and private sector partners. The district will award multiple contracts – four firms for the lobbying class and two for the engagement class – with monthly retainer fee structures and an initial three‑year term that can be extended twice for an additional year each. Key elements include ongoing weekly briefings, preparation of policy updates, testimony support, outreach material development, and representation of the district before a variety of public and private stakeholders. • Two service classes (Legislative & Lobbying; Community Engagement) with separate awardees. • Monthly‑retainer pricing; no published ceiling, but an initial three‑year term with up to two one‑year renewals. • Multiple‑award approach, allowing several firms to work concurrently on the same service class.
