Request for Proposals (RFP)

GoTriangle’s legal affairs are managed by a Board-appointed General Counsel, currently supported by three staff attorneys and a paralegal. To meet the agency’s varied and complex needs, GoTriangle’s legal department often requires assistance from outside counsel. Accordingly, GoTriangle is issuing this Request for Proposals (“RFP”) to identify one or more qualified law firms to provide legal services on an as-need basis. The range of legal subject matter confronted by GoTriangle is broad and may involve routine requests for counsel, a variety of transactional situations, dispute resolution, and litigation.

Any firm interested in serving as GoTriangle’s outside counsel is invited to submit a proposal in accordance with the procedures described below. The proposing firm (“Respondent”) may offer to perform all or limited portions of the Scope of Services. To most effectively meet its needs, GoTriangle may decide to split the work among multiple firms and may enter into contract negotiations with more than one Respondent.

Research Triangle Regional Public Transportation Authority D/B/A GoTriangle (“GoTriangle”) is seeking proposals from qualified individuals, firms and teams with experience in providing Human Resources Audit Services. The Offeror will be expected to possess thorough knowledge, expertise, skills and experience necessary to deliver the services requested.

GoTriangle is seeking qualified firms to submit proposals demonstrating the ability to perform AUDIT SERVICES as indicated above and required by NC General Statue 159-34. GoTriangle intends to enter into a contract for a period of one (1) years with four (4) one year options to extend, in accordance with Local Government Commission policy of only one (1) audit contract in force, at a time. The total contract period shall not exceed five (5) years.

GoTriangle seeks qualified consultants to develop the agency’s new Strategic Plan. This Request for Proposals (RFP) will lead to selecting a consultant to lead the agency’s strategic planning process. It is desired that the selected consultant has experience preparing strategic plans for public agencies, preferably in transit.

The Strategic Plan will shape GoTriangle’s direction to improve transit operations, enhance system performance, and update its business practices for the next three to five years. The plan will serve as a guide for the Board and leadership, program management and development, external communications, integration of outreach efforts, and internal capacity building.

We expect this process to include evaluation, stakeholder outreach, and strategic advisory services. We are looking for innovation and an approach that leads to a proper assessment of GoTriangle’s services and our path forward. The strategy development approach and schedule will be refined as the scope of work is finalized between GoTriangle and the selected consultant.
