1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 Brief Overview of the Project

The Harbor Department’s Cargo and Industrial Real Estate Division is soliciting

proposals from qualified consultants to assist staff with on-call (as needed) real estate

tasks.

The awarding division anticipates establishing up to three separate contracts with

the most qualified firms. The duration of the contract(s) awarded as a result of this RFP will

be three years from the date of execution of the agreement. These services shall

commence after the approval of the Harbor Department’s Executive Director and the

Board of Harbor Commissioners.

1.2 The Port of Los Angeles

The Port of Los Angeles is America’s Port®, the nation’s premier gateway for

international commerce and the busiest seaport in the Western Hemisphere. Located in

San Pedro Bay, 25 miles south of downtown Los Angeles, the Port encompasses 7,500

acres of land and water along 43 miles of waterfront.

The Port features both passenger and cargo terminals, including cruise, container,

automobile, breakbulk, dry and liquid bulk, and warehouse facilities that manage billions of

dollars’ worth of cargo each year. One of the world’s busiest seaports and leading gateway

for international trade in North America, the Port of Los Angeles has ranked as the number

one container port in the United States each year since 2000. In 2022, the Port handled a

total of 9.9 million TEUs, its busiest calendar year on record.

The Port of Los Angeles is a department of the City of Los Angeles (also known as

the Los Angeles Harbor Department) and is governed by the Los Angeles Board of Harbor

Commissioners, with members appointed by the Mayor of Los Angeles. Although the Port

is a City department, it is not supported by City taxes. Operating as a landlord port with

more than 200 leaseholders, the Port generates its revenues from leasing and shipping

service fees. The Port’s jurisdiction is limited to the Harbor District, which includes property

in San Pedro, Wilmington, and Terminal Island.
