EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The following factors were considered when evaluating proposals: background of the proposer(s) and subcontractor(s), including professional qualifications and experience, references, scope of services, capability of proposer to meet district requirements, utilization of small businesses, demonstrated commitment to quality, and cost effectiveness of service. Proposals were accepted on March 17, 2009. The district utilizes two online vendor registration systems to notify potential bidders of opportunities. Through these systems, eight firms responded (Attachment A).
The evaluation process included a committee of district-level personnel (Attachment B). On May 7, 2009, the committee evaluated all the proposals based on stated RFP criteria (Attachment C) and selected three vendors to continue. All three vendors made presentations and were evaluated at the committee meeting on May 19, 2009. Upon completion of all phases of the RFP, the committee reviewed key points as a group, individually rated each firm for final compilation and ranking (Attachment D), and recommended Buck's Wholesale Plumbing Inc. for the award.ANNUAL DISTRICT GOAL(S) AND CRITICAL SUCCESS FACTOR(S)
