not sure which direction your team is looking in taking this.  i have
experience working with CoreSite and their Any2 exchange.  this is will
provide you peering with pretty much everyone you'd want to, and they
manage most of the paperwork:

having said that, you still have to manage your AS as well as some
networking infrastructure (for example i've dropped some gear at 1
Wilshire to participate a while back - couple RU nothing major).

not sure if this is helpful though....
