Ferguson Commission Seeks Core Intermediary for Day-to-Day Operations

The Ferguson Commission has opened a formal Request for Qualifications process to select a Core Intermediary. This one organization or a partnership of organizations with a designated lead is needed to provide infrastructure and support to advance the work of the Ferguson Commission.

The Request for Qualifications (RFQs) reads as follows:

“The Core Intermediary will be responsible for coordinating a transparent public process to organize institutions, organizations, leaders and resources across sectors. These coordinated sectors will ultimately lead call to action implementation efforts with ongoing support from the Core Intermediary.”

The RFQs will be scored by a review panel, formed by the same method as the Commission working groups, who will present up to three finalists. Each finalist will give a presentation at a full Commission meeting and participate in a question-and-answer session. The final selection will be made by the Commissioners at the same meeting.

Proposals are due Oct. 16, and finalists will be notified by Oct. 28. The public presentations at a Commission meeting and selection of the Core Intermediary will be held Nov. 9.
