4.0 SELECTION PROCESS / REQUIREMENTS

4.1 Selection Process

The Trustees will select the General Contractor using a two-step process—the Request for Qualifications and the Request for Proposals. In the first step of the selection process, the Trustees focus on selecting the most qualified firms by issuing this Request for Qualifications (RFQ), from which Respondents may submit Statements of Qualifications (SOQ) to the Trustees. The Trustees will appoint a selection committee to review and score the Respondents’ SOQ, and the highest scoring three (3) firms will continue in the selection process. The Trustees will notify the unsuccessful firms and will send the successful firms the Request for Proposals (RFP).

In the second step of the selection process (the RFP process), the Trustees focus on the selection of the firm with team members that are most suited to the Project. The Trustees’ selection committee will score the responding proposals from the finalists, conduct interviews, and may conduct reference checks. The Trustees may award the TO-CA MEA to the highest scoring firm, as specified in the RFP. The judgment of the Trustees in this selection process is not subject to appeal.

If the Trustees do not award the TO-CA MEA, or if the Trustees award the TO-CA MEA and do not award a construction phase agreement, the Respondents will not be entitled to recover any monetary awards of any type whatsoever. The Trustees reserve the right to reject all responses to this RFQ. The Trustees may terminate the TO-CA MEA agreement prior to a construction phase and/or seek alternate competitive public bids for a construction phase. There is no guarantee any construction phase agreement will be awarded.

4.2 Requirements for Qualification
