These services help ensure the City can attract and retain talent, support <br />internal equity, comply with applicable regulations, and respond to organizational changes. <br />To continue these services, the City issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for professional classification and <br />compensation consulting services. A total of six proposals were received in response to the City’s RFP for <br />classification and compensation consulting services. Proposals were evaluated based on firm <br />qualifications, experience, approach, and proposed cost. Among the proposals that met the City’s <br />evaluation standards, CPS HR offered the most competitive hourly rates. <br />8.C. - Page 1 of 18 <br />18
