This Request for Proposal (RFP), issued by Hamilton East Public Library is for strategic planning process, including all relevant research, community outreach, and document creation.
HEPL desires a strategic plan that will further incentivize the kind of innovation that has put the organization at the forefront of the profession. We seek to build on our existing and popular flagship programs and services (Books Build Bridges, Seed Library, Ignite Makerspace, Crossroads Discovery Center, etc.) with additional forward-thinking ideas. The plan should address the potential for a new library location on the property owned by HEPL at the intersection of 156th Street and Olio Road in Noblesville. The plan should be for a term of five years. Measurability will be a key component of the new strategic plan. HEPL desires a set of metrics that can be used to measure our success as an organization, as opposed to a checklist of projects. The successful strategic planning vendor should be able to inform the identification of these metrics and assist in creating a dashboard that can be used by HEPL staff and board. The metrics will be used to assess the general progress of the library but also as potential components of individual staff as part of a merit-based compensation system.
