What is a Term Agreement?
A. The purpose of Term Agreements is for the Department to pre-qualify consultants who will be available to perform services as the need arises. The “term” of a Term Agreement is usually 2 years. Should the Department decide to utilize a consultant under the Term Agreement, a Work Task Agreement will be negotiated and written. A list of consultants with a current Term Agreement is maintained by the CAU for use by the Department and Local Agencies to select consulting firms for professional services.
