How to respond to Fairfax County’s RFEI: format, content and timeline
Summary
County staff told potential respondents to submit a short PDF answering who, what, how and why; high‑level cost estimates are sufficient and follow‑up requests for details may follow. Staff will post recordings and may publish FAQs if recurring questions emerge.
County staff walked through what to include in an RFEI submission and how staff will use responses. ‘‘The real crux of the submission should answer who, what, how, and why,’’ McDonald said, advising respondents to introduce their organization, describe the concept, explain how it aligns with county goals and note what resources (land, financing, tonnage) the project would need.
McDonald said staff do not expect detailed site plans or itemized budgets at this stage: a concise PDF (ideally under 10 pages) with examples, charts or photos is acceptable and staff will request detailed cost information later for proposals of interest. She reiterated the submission deadline of Oct. 30 and said recordings and linked resources will be posted on the county website.
