 As a part of this RFP, it is expected that existing personnel policies may be simplified, deconflicted, updated, and rendered best practice, as requested by staff and Levy Court Commissioners. It is also expected that training to all supervisors on interpreting and implementing the updated personnel policies will be included to ensure that there is a shared understanding and consistency throughout the organization.

This RFP provides interested respondents with information to prepare and submit a proposal for consideration by KCLC regarding its professional services to review and revise the County Personnel Policy Manual consistent with human resources policy best practices. This RFP process is intended to identify potential contractors with which KCLC may, in its sole discretion, choose to enter into an agreement for the proposed consulting services. It is expressly understood and agreed that the submission of a proposal does not require or obligate KCLC to pursue an agreement with any respondent. All negotiations are subject to the consideration and discretionary approval by KCLC, which may, at its sole discretion, accept or reject any and/or all proposals and agreements.

Kent County Levy Court reserves the right to reject, without cause, any and all proposals, to waive any informality relative to proposals, and accept any proposal from any person deemed advantageous to the County.
