Please indicate whether or not this certification is a necessity in order to propose for this RFP. • A: Firms are not required to possess the PMP at the time of submission in order to submit on this RFP. The firm’s Project Manager(s) need to obtain the certification prior to executing a task order with Denver Water. • Note: PMP certification is for individuals, not firms. Also, DW notified firms of this requirement 5 years ago.
RFP Questions Received (continued) • Q: In the Request for Proposal for General Consultant Services Section 2.14 Project Management Certification, it states that PMP certification is required of project managers and discipline leads for all technical design and construction management task orders.
