The county is seeking a qualified vendor to implement a comprehensive business growth strategy across all municipalities. The selected organization will be responsible for executing the recommendations outlined in the county's business growth strategy, which is focused on establishing a central point of contact for businesses seeking workforce, financial, and site selection assistance. This role involves connecting businesses to the appropriate organizations and resources to facilitate their growth.

Key responsibilities include finalizing and tracking business technical assistance performance metrics, assisting county municipalities in marketing their business and industrial parks, and collaborating with local banks to align Community Reinvestment Act strategies with the business growth initiative. The vendor will also work to expand the number of municipalities contributing financially to a unified economic development effort and promote increased contributions to the GROW Fund, thereby enhancing financial tools available to county businesses and supporting the sustainability of the economic development organization.

Regular reporting on the progress and outcomes of the strategy implementation will be required, ensuring transparency and accountability throughout the duration of the project.
