Consultants

Throughout the course of operations, the District will frequently have the need for consultant support. The District will procure additional support from “Professional” and various “other Personal” services firms as necessary to serve our customers in the best manner possible. In order to facilitate the selection of consultants, the District uses a consultant roster. Consultant services solicited by the District may include:

  • Professional Services “A&E”: Architecture, Engineering, Surveying, & Landscape Architecture as defined in accordance with RCW 39.80.020.
  • Personal Services: All other services, including but not limited to public outreach, accounting, communications, legal, strategic planning, environmental reviews, and human resources.
