Yes, subcontractors may be used, but they must be disclosed. Information on subcontractor personnel must be disclosed consistent with Technical Proposal requirements of the Evaluation Criteria. The business relationship between the bidder and subcontractor must also be described. All costs are to be included in the cost sheets. Each standing trustee is identified separately.
Some cities have more than one trustee.
Solicitations of interest were sent to 526 membership organizations and audit firms. 288 audit firms responded to the solicitation and requested bid proposals for one or more regions. The incumbents have audited the particular regions for five years. There is no required format. No, we appreciate the tight time frame, but selection of audit firms must be completed in time to conduct training, and allow the audit firms adequate planning periods.
