|
| | HB3289 | - 27 - | LRB100 10503 MLM 20718 b |
|
|
1 | | services, the scoring method shall be one of the |
2 | | following: |
3 | | (i) The fixed price/highest score method is a |
4 | | form of best-value selection in which a fixed |
5 | | contract price is established by the agency and |
6 | | stated in the request for proposals. In the request |
7 | | for proposals the agency shall also specify the |
8 | | qualitative and technical factors to be used to |
9 | | score the qualitative and technical proposals and |
10 | | the number of points allocated to each factor. All |
11 | | offeror price proposals must be for the specified |
12 | | fixed price. The selection committee shall |
13 | | evaluate and score the offeror qualitative and |
14 | | technical proposals using the specified scoring |
15 | | factors and allocated numbers of points. The |
16 | | winner will be the responsive and responsible |
17 | | offeror with the highest total number of points on |
18 | | its qualitative and technical proposal. |
19 | | (ii) The proposed price plus time |
20 | | factor/technical score method is a form of |
21 | | best-value selection in which the agency provides |
22 | | the value of time on a daily basis. The number of |
23 | | days in each offeror's proposed schedule is |
24 | | multiplied by the agency's daily rate and the |
25 | | result is added to the offeror's price to create a |
26 | | total. The total is divided by the offeror's |
|
| | HB3289 | - 28 - | LRB100 10503 MLM 20718 b |
|
|
1 | | qualifications and technical proposal score to |
2 | | determine the offeror's final score, which is a |
3 | | dollars of price per point rating. The responsive |
4 | | and responsible offeror with the lowest score |
5 | | wins. The agency shall include in the request for |
6 | | proposals the qualitative and technical factors to |
7 | | be used to score the qualitative and technical |
8 | | proposals and the number of points allocated to |
9 | | each factor. The selection committee shall |
10 | | evaluate and score the offeror qualitative and |
11 | | technical proposals using the specified scoring |
12 | | factors and allocated numbers of points. The |
13 | | selection committee shall not open the offerors' |
14 | | price proposals until after scoring the offerors' |
15 | | qualitative and technical proposals. |
16 | | (iii) The proposed price/technical score |
17 | | method is a form of best-value selection in which |
18 | | the agency specifies in the request for proposals |
19 | | the qualitative and technical factors to be used to |
20 | | score the qualitative and technical proposals and |
21 | | the number of points allocated to each factor. The |
22 | | selection committee shall evaluate and score the |
23 | | offeror qualitative and technical proposals using |
24 | | the specified scoring factors and allocated |
25 | | numbers of points. The selection committee shall |
26 | | not open the offerors' price proposals until after |
|
| | HB3289 | - 29 - | LRB100 10503 MLM 20718 b |
|
|
1 | | scoring the offerors' qualitative and technical |
2 | | proposals. After evaluating and scoring the |
3 | | qualitative and technical proposals, each |
4 | | offeror's price proposal is opened and each |
5 | | offeror's proposed price is divided by the |
6 | | offeror' score on its qualitative and technical |
7 | | proposal to determine the offeror's final score, |
8 | | which is a dollars of price per-point rating. The |
9 | | responsive and responsible offeror with the lowest |
10 | | final score is the winner. |
11 | | (4) In evaluating and scoring the offerors' proposals |
12 | | the selection committee shall use one of the four scoring |
13 | | methods in subparagraph (G) of paragraph (2) of subsection |
14 | | (d) of this Section as specified in the request for |
15 | | proposals. |
16 | | (5) Before opening any price proposal, the selection |
17 | | committee shall open the final qualitative and technical |
18 | | proposals, evaluate the final qualitative and technical |
19 | | proposals and score the final qualitative and technical |
20 | | proposals using the scoring method in the request for |
21 | | proposals. No other factors or criteria may be used in the |
22 | | evaluation and scoring. |
23 | | (6) After completion of the evaluation and scoring of |
24 | | all final qualitative and technical proposals, the |
25 | | selection committee shall open the price proposals. |
26 | | (A) For the fixed price/highest score method, |
|
| | HB3289 | - 30 - | LRB100 10503 MLM 20718 b |
|
|
1 | | price is not a competitive factor, price will not be |
2 | | evaluated or scored and the winner will be the |
3 | | responsive and responsible offeror with the highest |
4 | | score on its qualitative and technical proposal. |
5 | | (B) For the proposed price plus time |
6 | | factor/technical score method, the selection committee |
7 | | multiplies the number of days in the proposed schedule |
8 | | provided by each offeror by the agency's daily rate as |
9 | | stated in the request for proposals and the result is |
10 | | added to the offeror's price to create a total. The |
11 | | total is divided by the offeror's qualitative and |
12 | | technical proposal score to determine the overall |
13 | | score. The responsive and responsible offeror with the |
14 | | lowest overall score is the winner. |
15 | | (C) For the proposed price/technical score method, |
16 | | each offeror's proposed price is divided by the |
17 | | offeror's qualitative and technical proposal score to |
18 | | determine the offeror's final score. The responsive |
19 | | and responsible offeror with the lowest final score is |
20 | | the winner. |
21 | | (7) The agency shall promptly notify the winning |
22 | | offeror that it is the winner. Before or at the same time |
23 | | as the agency notifies the winning offeror that it is the |
24 | | winner, the agency shall send actual notice to each other |
25 | | offeror either that the offeror is not the winner or that |
26 | | another offeror is the winner. |
|
| | HB3289 | - 31 - | LRB100 10503 MLM 20718 b |
|
|
1 | | (8) The contract or contracts file shall contain the |
2 | | basis on which the award is made, including at a minimum |
3 | | the information and documents required under subsection |
4 | | (f) of this Section. |
5 | | (9) For design-build construction services only, the |
6 | | agency shall award a stipend equal to a percentage, as |
7 | | prescribed in the request for proposals, of the agency's |
8 | | project final budget for design and construction, as |
9 | | prescribed in the request for proposals, but not less than |
10 | | 0.3% of the project final budget for design and |
11 | | construction to each final list offeror who provides a |
12 | | responsive, but unsuccessful, proposal. If the agency does |
13 | | not award a contract, all responsive final list offerors |
14 | | shall receive the stipend based on the agency's project |
15 | | final budget for design and construction as included in the |
16 | | request for proposals. The agency shall pay the stipend to |
17 | | each offeror within 90 days after the award of the initial |
18 | | contract or the decision not to award a contract. In |
19 | | consideration for paying the stipend, the agency may use |
20 | | any ideas or information contained in the proposals in |
21 | | connection with any contract awarded for the project or in |
22 | | connection with a subsequent procurement, without any |
23 | | obligation to pay any additional compensation to the |
24 | | offerors. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this |
25 | | paragraph (9), an offeror may elect to waive the stipend. |
26 | | If an offeror elects to waive the stipend, the agency may |
|
| | HB3289 | - 32 - | LRB100 10503 MLM 20718 b |
|
|
1 | | not use ideas and information contained in the offeror's |
2 | | proposal, except that this restriction does not prevent the |
3 | | agency from using any idea or information if the idea or |
4 | | information is also included in a proposal of an offeror |
5 | | that accepts the stipend. |
