The Texas General Land Office ("GLO") invites consultants to submit proposals to provide consulting services to the GLO's Financial Management division.

The proposed project is to make recommendations to the GLO for efficiency, effectiveness, compliance, and best practices related to its Financial Management division's organization and processes.
