SUMMARY


A California agency is seeking consulting services to develop a five-year strategic plan for its fire department. The work includes stakeholder engagement, operational review, strategic recommendations, and presentation of the final plan to the city council.

DESCRIPTION


The issuing agency seeks a qualified vendor to provide five-year strategic plan services for a fire department. The selected firm will assess current conditions through an analysis of existing strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats, and recommend strategic initiatives to guide the department over a five-year period.

The scope includes reviewing the department’s existing standards of cover and community risk assessment, along with its current mission statement, vision, and values. The consultant will also engage the community and gather input from internal and external stakeholders, including labor, management, staff, and the city council. Because firefighters work across three separate shifts, the engagement process will require three separate site visits to capture their input.

The selected vendor will prepare both draft and final versions of the strategic plan and present the final plan to the city council at a designated meeting. Questions are due by August 21, 2026, and the contract term will be one year.
