Description: 

This Request for Proposals (the “RFP”) is an invitation by the Town of Cochrane (“the Town”) to prospective proponents to submit proposals for Municipal Consulting Services RFP, as further described in Section A of the RFP Particulars(Appendix B) (the “Deliverables”).  

Ideally located between the city of Calgary and the Rocky Mountains, Cochrane is a community of choice. For the past number of years, we have been one of the fastest growing communities not just in Alberta, but also within Canada. And our future growth looks just as promising.  

  

With a population just shy of 40,000, Cochrane’s growth brings many exciting opportunities, but it brings challenges too. As we plan for and adapt to growth, we are working to ensure essential community infrastructure and master plans are in place to establish that we continue to be a community of choice for decades to come.  The complexities of managing urban growth, improving infrastructure, and ensuring the well-being of our residents require a strong partnership. 

 

Recently, Cochrane Council has adopted a number of strategic guiding documents that pave the path for how our community will intentionally evolve in years to come, including: Growth Strategy, Envision Cochrane 2050 (Cochrane’s updated Municipal Development Plan), 2022-2025 Strategic Plan, as well as the 2025 update to the 10-year capital plan.  

The main categories the successful Proponent May be tasked with are: 

  • Capital Planning 

  • Development Support / Review 

  • Policy Development & Support 

  • Asset Management 

  • Owner’s Engineer (projects) 

  • Water / Wastewater Model Maintenance 

  • Regulatory Support 

The intention of this Proposal is to partner with a proponent that can support the Town as we continue to evolve as an innovative organization focused on continuous improvement, reflecting our commitment to delivering upon the needs of the community now and into the future. Our organization is fast paced, future facing and progressive. We need a partner who can not only support our needs, but can also help us to challenge the status quo and continue to explore opportunities to be the best municipality in Alberta.
