Requesting Organization's Commitment

1. Our organization agrees to provide the time, staff support and resources needed to work with the assigned Volunteer Executive Consultants in performing the work described in this Request for Management Assistance (RMA). It is understood and agreed to that the assistance provided by RSVP/VEC may be publicly acknowledged only to the extent that assistance was provided.

2. We understand that the RSVP/VEC consultants are volunteers and have agreed not to: (1)

Recommend goods or services from sources in which he/she has an interest and (2) personally accept fees or commissions developing from this consulting relationship. In consideration of the consultants furnishing management and/or technical assistance, we waive all claims against RSVP of Montgomery County, its personnel, and other RSVP/VECs arising from this assistance.

3. VEC assistance is subject to the availability of VEC resources and, at VEC’s discretion, the skills necessary to complete any assignment.

4. In order to assist VEC in documenting the effectiveness of their consulting services for granting sources and making our services the best they can be, we agree to participate in a follow-up call shortly after our service is complete and then completing a questionnaire about 60-90 days later.

5. Subsequent to VEC’s receipt of this RMA we agree to have 1-5 members of our organization complete an O.C.A.T. (Organization Capacity Assessment Tool) survey and return it to VEC within (2) two weeks. The O.C.A.T. survey asks you to rate the current status of your nonprofit organization’s board, marketing, operations, etc.. Your ratings will help guide the VEC project and measure its progress.
