<br /> <br />SECTION 3 – PROPOSAL EVALUATION PROCESS <br />3. 1 GENERAL <br />All proposals will be reviewed to determine compliance with the requirements as specified in the RFP. <br />Proposals will be evaluated on how well the proposal meets the needs of the City, as described in the <br />Supplier’s response to each requirement and the evaluation criteria identified in this RFP. It is important <br />that the responses be clear and complete so that the evaluators can adequately understand all aspects of <br />the proposal. <br />3.2 SELECTION PROCESS <br />The City will select the proposal that, in its sole discretion, is the most advantageous to the City. The City <br />reserves the right to make an award without further discussion of the proposal submitted; there may be <br />no best and final offer procedure. Therefore, the proposal should be initially submitted on the most <br />favorable terms that the Supplier can offer. The specifications may be altered by the City of Everett based <br />on the Supplier’s proposal and an increase or reduction of services with the Supplier may be negotiated <br />before contract signing, award, and execution. <br />3.3 CONTRACT AWARD AND EXECUTION <br />A contract award will be for the Supplier that best meets the needs of the City of Everett. <br />The award of a contract to the successful Supplier will be notified of acceptance. The award of a contract <br />will bind the Supplier to furnish the service in accordance with the information herein, responses to <br />questions, the Supplier’s proposal, other representations made, as well as all other terms and conditions <br />of the contract in its final form. <br />3.4 EVALUATION CRITERIA <br />Proposals will be evaluated based on the following weighted criteria and how well they meet the needs <br />and requirements as described in the RFP. <br /># Criteria Points Description <br />1 Qualifications and Relevant Experience 50 Evaluate responses to Questionnaire 4.03. <br />2 Technical Capability, Approach, and Capacity 150 Evaluate responses to Questionnaire 4.03. <br />3 Communication, Customer Services, and <br />Training 65 Evaluate responses to Questionnaire 4.03. <br />4 Risk, Performance, and Quality Assurance 35 Evaluate responses to Questionnaire 4.03. <br />5 Monetary Proposal 100 <br /> Total 400 <br /> <br />3.5 INTERVIEWS <br />The City of Everett may request interviews with the highest-ranked Supplier(s).
