RFQ for Consulting Services to Develop Written Climate Adaptation and Mitigation Strategy
The TRIBES are issuing this RFQ to select consulting services to compile completed, existing, and planned climate adaptation projects into a written strategy.
Starting in 2015 the TRIBES have been planning for and completing projects according to a broadly defined strategy for climate adaptation and mitigation on the Tulalip Reservation and across traditional tribal territory. At the initiation of our tribal climate program we recognized that local information about climate change was evolving rapidly and that we were in a learning curve regarding how to approach the effects of climate change on our tribes. Now that our climate adaptation and mitigation has evolved and our direction has become more substantive we see benefit in writing a strategy defining the Tulalip outlook and approach. This memorializing document will describe and define our past work and how we will implement our planned work for generations ahead. Under this RFQ we seek support from a consultant to, in close coordination with the Tulalip climate team, and building from previous drafts of our climate adaptation plan, develop a written climate adaptation and mitigation strategy.
We anticipate the scope of work awarded under this agreement will be on a time and materials basis, not exceeding $50,000 over a contract period from October 1, 2024, to March 30, 2025.
The project is located on the Tulalip Indian Reservation.
