A nine-university cooperative is replacing its 403(b) plan advisors. The work is committee facilitation, IPS and fund monitoring, and negotiating with recordkeepers — not recordkeeping. Incumbents are institutional consulting firms. Illinois vendor registration and a bid bond apply.
This one has closed. It stays up because the requirements are a useful guide to what this buyer asks for, and most public contracts come back around. See what's open now.

Is this one worth your time?
It is worth roughly $50,000 to $200,000 a year to whoever wins it. Working out whether you could be the one who wins it means reading the whole solicitation, and most of an afternoon disappears into a document that was never a fit. That is the part we do.
We read it end to end and tell you plainly whether you would be competitive, naming the requirement that decides it. If it is worth bidding we write the response, and you price it and sign it. If it is not, we say so and you have lost twenty minutes instead of a day.
