DESCRIPTION
This RFP seeks a qualified vendor to provide comprehensive strategic planning consulting services. The selected consultant will develop a public-facing summary of the overall strategic plan, and prepare an actionable plan detailing short-, medium-, and long-term objectives for the next five years. This action plan will serve as an internal resource for ongoing updates by staff and board members.
Key responsibilities include assessing current programs and operations to ensure alignment with organizational priorities, as well as identifying changes needed for improvement. The consultant will evaluate major strategic opportunities—such as forming partnerships, considering mergers, program expansion, and other growth initiatives. Additionally, the engagement covers a thorough assessment of current and long-term fundraising needs, with recommendations to diversify and strengthen fiscal sustainability in line with organizational goals.
Further, the selected firm will analyze the organizational structure, reviewing staff capacity, technology needs, succession planning, and potential role shifts to support organizational growth. Strategies to expand and diversify the community of members, supporters, and participants through effective statewide communication, outreach, and engagement are also to be identified.
