For projects with anticipated fees greater than $500,000, consultants are selected using a panel review process. Enterprise Services seeks volunteer panel members who are State of Washington licensed professionals and are able to complete the entire selection process.

The project selection process usually takes up to two days for:

• Submittal review (completed individually and can be completed at any time before due date)
• Interview (conducted approximately two weeks after submittal review)

The voluntary position provides exposure to decision makers for various state projects. It also offers an opportunity to see other firms’ statements of qualifications, how they represent themselves in the interview phase, and get a feel for what it is like on the 'other side of the table.'

To participate as a volunteer panel member for the selection process of a project, please complete the Private Sector Panel Information form.
