7 CSR 10-24.100 - Selection Procedures and Award Criteria
PURPOSE: This rule provides the criteria used to determine whether standard design-build or modified design-build procedures will be used.
(1) The
commission will use a two- (2-) phase selection procedure for all design-build
projects. If it is determined by the commission that the design-build procedure
is not appropriate for a given project, based on the criteria in
7 CSR
10-24.130, the modified design-build contracting
method may be utilized.
(2) The
following criteria will be used to decide whether design-build or modified
design-build selection procedures are appropriate:
(A) The number of offers
anticipated;
(B) Proposers are
expected to perform substantial design work before developing price
proposals;
(C) Proposers will incur
a substantial expense in preparing proposals; and
(D) Commission has sufficiently defined and
analyzed other contributing factors, including:
1. The requirements of the project;
2. The time constraints for delivery of the
project;
3. The capability and
experience of potential contractors;
4. Commission capabilities to manage the
standard design-build selection process; and
5. Any other criteria that the commission may
consider appropriate.
(3) The commission will identify the
selection procedure and award criteria in the Request for Qualification (RFQ).
The following will determine the type of selection procedure and award criteria
used by the commission:
Selection procedure | Award criteria options |
Standard Design -Build Selection Procedures | Lowest price, adjusted low bid (price per quality point), meets criteria/low bid, weighted criteria process, fixed price/best design, best value. |
Modified Design-Build | Lowest price technically acceptable. |
(4)
Commission will base the source selection decision on a comparative assessment
of proposals against all selection criteria in the solicitation. Commission may
use reports and analyses prepared by others, however, the source selection
decision represents the commission's independent judgment.
(5) The source selection decision will be
documented, and the documentation will include the rationale for any business
judgments and tradeoffs made or relied on, including benefits associated with
additional costs. Although the rationale for the selection decision is
documented, that documentation need not quantify the tradeoffs that led to the
decision.
(6) A minimum of two (2)
to a maximum of five (5) firms will be short-listed. If the commission fails to
receive offers from at least two (2) responsive proposers, the offers will not
be opened; and the commission may re-advertise the project.
