The Center City District (CCD) uses professional and consulting services throughout the year for a variety of projects and initiatives. CCD strives to engage a diverse group of highly qualified professionals to deliver these services and typically selects them through the Request for Proposals (RFP) process. Requests for Proposals (RFPs), Request for Qualifications (RFQs), solicitations, and public notices related to professional service procurements are posted on this web page as they are released by the CCD.
