External Competition - Request for Qualifications, Investigator

Posted on behalf of AMANS:

This Request for Qualifications (the “RFQ”) is an invitation by the Association of Municipal Administrators, Nova Scotia (“AMANS”) to any subject matter experts who may have experience in or capability to perform investigations and reporting related to a new Code of Conduct for Municipal Officials (the “Code of Conduct”) implemented by the Government of Nova Scotia, as further described in the RFQ Particulars (Appendix C) (the “Deliverables”).

The intent of this RFQ is to identify subject matter experts (“Proponents”) who have interest, the qualifications, and the capacity to perform the role of Investigator as outlined in the Code of Conduct documents and to compile of list of these proponents from which Municipalities, Towns, and Villages (the “Entity” or “Entities”) may then choose one Proponent to act as their investigator.

Given the prohibition against Conflict of Interest in the Code of Conduct, Entities may not choose a Proponent who currently does work for them. In the event that a Conflict of Interest exists, or appears to exist, an Entity may choose an Investigator from outside the list or develop a plan with one of the Proponents to mitigate the real or perceived Conflict of Interest satisfactory to the complainant.
