The Bay Area Air Quality Management District (“Air District”) seeks proposals from qualified independent certified public accountants to conduct (i) a financial audit on the Air District’s financial position, and (ii) a program review of the Air District’s Transportation Fund for Clean Air (TFCA) program. Audit firms must have experience conducting governmental audits and be licensed to practice in the State of California. In addition, audit firms with familiarity and prior experience dealing with the California Clean Air Act of 1988 and environmental regulations in general are encouraged to submit a response to this Request for Proposals (“RFP”).
The Air District anticipates entering into a five-year service agreement with the selected audit firm, subject to an annual review by the Air District.
The first financial audit will be conducted for the period covering fiscal year beginning July 1, 2022 and ending June 30, 2023, with options to renew for audits of fiscal years ending June 30, 2024, 2025, 2026 and 2027.
The first TFCA program review will cover projects closed out in fiscal year ending June 30, 2022 or earlier, with options to renew for additional TFCA program reviews covering projects and programs that were closed out in fiscal years ending June 30, 2023, 2024, 2025, and 2026.
The Air District anticipates selecting one firm to perform both the financial audit and TFCA program review. Interested parties should submit one proposal that addresses both the financial audit and TFCA program review. Proposals that do not address both will not be considered.
