Minnesota’s Office of Traffic Safety seeks an experienced law-enforcement professional to support traffic-safety programs across Northeast Minnesota.
- **Government buyer:** State of Minnesota, Minnesota Department of Public Safety (DPS), Office of Traffic Safety (OTS). Ashley Gene Scharffbillig is identified as the buyer contact.
- **Requested service:** A Law Enforcement Liaison to connect OTS with state, county, tribal, and municipal law-enforcement agencies; promote OTS and NHTSA traffic-safety programs; encourage enforcement-program participation; provide technical assistance and outreach; and report on activities and results.
- **Provider qualifications and coverage:** The Northeast Minnesota role calls for an experienced sworn peace officer, including a retiree, who resides in one of 12 counties: Aitkin, Carlton, Chisago, Cook, Isanti, Itasca, Kanabec, Koochiching, Lake, Mille Lacs, Pine, or Saint Louis. Frequent travel using an insured personal vehicle is required; travel expenses are not reimbursed. The contractor must have email, Microsoft Office 365, and telephone messaging access.
- **Workload and price ceiling:** The expected workload is approximately 1,500 hours per year. Pricing is by fixed hourly rate, with no more than 1,500 hours and $100,000 per 12-month period; travel, equipment, supplies, and other performance costs are not separately reimbursed.
- **Notable performance expectations:** Monthly in-person agency visits and performance reporting are specified. A sample contract attachment also describes quarterly progress reporting and a target of seeking at least 75% agency participation in mobilizations; that sample references the Metro region, so its applicability to the Northeast service should be confirmed.
- **Term:** The Northeast scope anticipates an initial term of approximately 10.5 months, with up to four additional one-year extensions at the State’s discretion. The annual workload and pricing limits apply by 12-month period.
- **Products and vendors:** No products, part numbers, OEMs, or commercial service vendors are named. The procurement is for professional services provided by a qualified law-enforcement professional.
- **Attachment line items:** The attachments include Northeast liaison services, a fixed-rate personnel-services cost line, an addendum covering the Northeast scope, and a sample Metro-region liaison service line.
