Description

The Metropolitan Council is seeking a qualified firm to provide executive recruitment services for a variety of mid‑level, senior‑level, and hard‑to‑fill specialized positions on an as‑needed basis. The contract will be awarded in November 2026, with proposals due by the end of August. The solicitation emphasizes small‑business participation (9 % MCUB) and requires compliance checks for debarment. • Services include sourcing, screening, and placement of qualified candidates for management‑level roles. • Work is performed on an as‑needed, on‑call basis rather than a fixed‑term project. • Mandatory pre‑proposal meeting on August 3 2026 (virtual) and a strict proposal deadline of August 27 2026. • Small‑business underutilized‑business goal of 9 % participation; debarment/suspension verification required.

Budget estimate

$100,000 – $1,000,000

The solicitation does not disclose a contract ceiling. Executive recruitment firms typically charge a fee of 15–25 % of the hired candidate’s first‑year salary. Assuming the Council fills 5–10 senior positions with average salaries of $120k–$180k, total fees could range from roughly $90,000 to $900,000. Therefore a plausible budget estimate is $100k – $1M, depending on the number and seniority of hires.
