Design-Build Procurement Process Competitive Sealed Proposals Best Value Selection Low Price Selection Multi-Step Sealed Bidding

Design-Build Procurement Process Project Development Establish Project Goals Project Goals tie directly to Project Technical Evaluation Factors Goals will help determine relative importance of Technical Proposal vs. Price Proposal for Trade Off Analysis Price = Technical Price > Technical Technical > Price

Design-Build Procurement Process Statement of Qualifications (SOQ) Lead Design Firm Qualifications and Past Performance Lead Construction Firm Qualifications and Past Performance Project Understanding and Design-Build Approach

Design-Build Procurement Process Evaluation Process Each SOQ is broken down to individual evaluation factors for separate teams to rate a factor or factors. Each evaluation factor and subfactor are rated by consensus team ratings Leaders of each team are part of Evaluation Committee Evaluation Committee reviews all ratings and determines consensus overall ratings and recommended Reduced Candidate List Recommendation presented to Selection Committee by Chairman of Evaluation Committee for approval.

Design-Build Procurement Process Adjectival Rating Process Establish Ratings Guidance before evaluations Exceptional, Good, Acceptable, Unacceptable w/ +/- Weighting of Evaluation Factors and Subfactors Critical (3 times more than important) Significant (2 times more than important) Important No Numbers or Formulas are used.

Design-Build Procurement Process Key Staff Relevant Project Experience – Role on projects, what they did on projects, and how it is relevant to project under procurement Project Description – Demonstrate how projects are similar/relevant to project under procurement Design-Build project not necessarily better than DBB, depends on experience and type of project.

Design-Build Procurement Process Past Project Experience (3 projects) Name, location, owner, project delivery method, construction cost, and schedule performance, and brief project description. What work is relevant and why. Successful methods, approaches and innovations on the project – relevancy to project under procurement

Design-Build Procurement Process Project Understanding & Design-Build Approach Understanding of Project Goals and Scope including significant risks and issues Approach to Design-Build Organizational Chart

Design-Build Procurement Process One-on-One Meetings w/ RCL Design-Builder sets agenda prior to meeting – more detail the better Don’t focus on general clarifications of RFP Focus on issues that need discussion Focus on potential ATCs Alternative Technical Concepts Submit Early as possible!! Alternative solutions/”Practical Design” that will advance the project goals - Explain Specific Deviations and why they are better or equal

Design-Build Procurement Process Technical Proposal Same evaluation process as SOQ w/ exception Price is brought in after consensus Technical Ratings by Evaluation Committee Show level of commitment – No consideration for tentative or ambiguous commitments (“we may” “we are considering”) Fully answer each question and do it in section of the question – No credit for references to other sections or appendices. Ensure it is clear how commitments are beneficial and will realisitically advance and achieve Project Goals.
