DESCRIPTION

A government authority in Powhatan, Virginia is seeking a consultant to provide a comprehensive space and staffing study. The study is expected to include an internal workload assessment, external benchmarking analysis, staffing and operational gap analysis, and a facilities and space needs assessment.

The selected firm will identify staffing gaps, operational inefficiencies, and opportunities for improvement, and develop recommendations such as staffing adjustments by department or service area, organizational realignment, process improvements, and other operational changes that support the county strategic plan. The work must also assess the impact of recommended staffing increases on internal support functions including Human Resources, Information Technology, Finance/Payroll, Procurement, and Facilities.

In addition, the consultant will develop and evaluate multiple staffing or operational scenarios to show how changes in staffing levels, deployment strategies, or service delivery methods could affect service outcomes. The study must evaluate projected space needs over a 10- to 20-year planning horizon and identify potential facility strategies such as renovation, expansion, departmental consolidation, or new construction. The consultant is also expected to provide planning tools or models that allow the county to assess future staffing and space needs without requiring additional consulting services.
