flexible Pricing Models that can provide the necessary project requirements underneath the
"salary cap". Incentives to the interested Proposer are the possibility of additional work with the
City as a result of this partnership arrangement and the resulting renewable Professional
Services Agreement. In addition, The City of Fort Collins allows other Public Agencies the
opportunity to purchase off the Award for this Bid, at the option of the Awarded Vendor.
