for bond counsel services.
The objective of this RFP process is to select one or more firm(s) to serve as bond counsel for anticipated financings over the next two to four years. On each financing, bond counsel, issuer counsel, and underwriter's counsel will each perform the work standardly delineated between those three roles. The firm(s) selected may also serve on other University financings that may arise during the course of this engagement. The University anticipates the preparation of the initial financing under this engagement will commence in early 2005.
Primary emphasis will be placed upon proposed cost and the respondent's demonstrated ability to provide the services. (Submitted by Kathe Shinham, State Purchasing Officer.)
