Introduction
The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has awarded a Brownfields Revolving Loan Fund
(RLF) Grant to Big Sky Economic Development (BSED).

This is a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) issued by BSED. The intent of this RFQ is to request technical
qualifications from qualified environmental consulting firms (Respondents) interested in providing
environmental oversight services to BSED. BSED plans to qualify one or more Respondent(s) that meet
the threshold and selection criteria outlined in this RFQ.

The RFQ is open to all qualified environmental professionals (QEPs) capable and qualified to meet the
objectives and requirements described in this document. Qualified Woman-owned businesses (WBE),
Minority-owned businesses (MBE), and/or Veteran-owned businesses (VBE) are encouraged to respond.

Upon receipt, all RFQ submissions will be reviewed for completeness in accordance with the threshold
and selection criteria contained herein. If threshold criteria are satisfied, BSED will assess each
Respondent’s qualifications based upon the selection criteria. Responses that meet the threshold and
selection criteria set forth below will be evaluated for further consideration by BSED and the selection
committee.

Once the selection committee has reviewed all Respondent proposals, two or more may be selected for a
video or in-person interview with the selection committee.
