C L A R 1 Q <br />4. Relevant Governmental Experience: Local governments and public <br />institutions are our main clients, and most of those are in North <br />Carolina. All three of the team's firms are local, have worked in and <br />around Orange County, and know the culture of this community. <br />5. Capacity and Workload: As noted in our cover letter, we are ready to <br />go. All three firms have projects that are coming to completion this <br />spring, and are in positions to devote all the needed time and attention <br />and more to this project. <br />6. Relevant Response to Proposal: We believe that we have assembled a <br />team that is exactly tailored to the needs of this project, verified with <br />success in directly related settings. And we hope you will see evidence <br />of our writing skills and organization in reading this proposal. <br />7. References: We encourage you to contact the local governments with <br />whom we have worked. One of our best references is Orange County, <br />and we are proud of our past work in pursuit of community <br />enhancement in this County. <br />8. What distinguishes this proposal from the rest? Two things taken in <br />combination distinguish this proposal, we believed: (1) Cutting -edge <br />national experience with best planning practices, particularly with <br />respect to advocacy of sustainability and resiliency principles; and (2) <br />Extensive and complete familiarity with Orange County because of <br />work on other projects in and around the County. <br />9. Proposed Approach: Our approach has been proven over and over to <br />be successful. We especially highlight our work in engaging <br />communities in thoughtful and productive public dialogue. <br />10. Availability: Timing is good. Many of our current projects are <br />crossing the finish line in March -April, and we are ready to devote the <br />needed attention to this Southern Orange Campus Master Plan <br />immediately. <br />We hope you agree that this team is a good fit for the County's needs to create <br />this Master Plan. Following, in the appendix, are firm descriptions and resumes <br />of key team members. <br />We look forward to the opportunity to discuss these ideas with you. Thank you <br />for your consideration. <br />Southern Orance Campus iI ster Alan <br />Page 27 <br />
