Good afternoon Readers,

The Washington state House of Representatives is looking to hire an IT Consultant to evaluate how state agencies handle their IT tasks and projects.  Due to cost overruns in a couple high profile state agency IT projects in the last few years, the legislature began to take a close look at IT costs and how projects were scoped and managed by state agencies.

The Request for Proposal is attached.  Here is a statement from the House of Representatives about the RFP: 

"The Washington State House of Representatives has prepared a Request for Proposals (RFP) for individuals or firms that may be interested in conducting an evaluation of Washington State’s approach to information technology as outlined in the attached RFP.  This RFP will also be posted on the House of Representatives web site at http://www.leg.wa.gov/House/.  Proposals are due August 29, 2008 at noon. 

Inquiries and questions about the RFP should be directed to the RFP Coordinator, Kara Durbin at Durbin.Kara@leg.wa.gov."

Please read the attached RFP for details and contact Kara Durbin directly if you have any questions.
