Request for Proposals - Consultant Services 

South Bay Harbor Freeway Goods Movement
Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG)
Submittal Deadline: October 9, 2006

RFP Number: 07-050

ABOUT SCAG
Over the past four decades, the Southern California Association of
Governments (SCAG) has evolved as the largest of nearly 700 councils of
government in the United States, functioning as the Metropolitan
Planning Organization (MPO) for six counties: Los Angeles, Orange, San
Bernardino, Riverside, Ventura and Imperial.

As the designated MPO, SCAG is mandated by the federal government to
research and put together plans for transportation, growth management,
hazardous waste management, and air quality.

SCAG relies heavily on outside consultants and vendors to help
accomplish the overall mission and objectives of SCAG. We are always
striving to increase the breadth and depth of talent in our pool of
potential consultants and vendors, and are especially interested in
bringing more certified DBEs into the fold.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
The South Bay Cities Council of Governments (SBCCOG) seeks professional
consultant assistance to help the SBCCOG and its cities to be in a
position to make informed choices as to strategies for mitigating
current impacts and avoiding future ones while at the same time
supporting the South Bay's economic interests by improving the
efficiency and reliability of the goods movement system. In addition,
the SBCCOG wishes to gain an understanding of the implications for the
South Bay of goods movement strategies being pursued in the Gateway
Cities subregion and elsewhere in the County, region and State.
