The Regional Housing Initiative (RHI) is a partnership between eight housing authorities, including LCHA, in northeastern Illinois. RHI works to support affordable and mixed-income housing developments in opportunity areas.

The Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning (CMAP) is a comprehensive planning organization who helps the seven counties, and 284 communities of northeastern Illinois implement strategies that address transportation, housing, economic development, open space, the environment, and other quality-of-life issues.

CMAP provides staffing support to RHI by serving as a liaison between partners, assisting with the development of RHI initiatives, and providing other programmatic support as requested by RHI partners.

The RHI partners wish to issue a Request for Qualifications to commission technical assistance to focus on improving programmatic processes.

The RHI partners are seeking technical assistance to update, trouble shoot, standardize, and streamline the Operation and Management Agreements (OMA). CMAP is not a partner and therefore, not able to author/sponsor the procurement of this consultant.
