Notice of Intent to Award

DATE: 10/24/2024

SUBJECT: S-7300-00011085 North Benton County Communities Pathway David Evans and Associates is the top ranked firm selected for negotiations of a contract to provide Personal Services as specified in the above referenced RFP. The scores and rankings of all Proposers are shown in the score matrix accompanying this notice. The award submittal requirements stated in the RFP are summarized on Attachment 1 of this notice.

James Feldmann will be the ODOT Project Manager (PM) for this Project. ODOT’s PM will initiate contact with Consultant and will be the primary contact for negotiation of the statement of work (SOW), schedule of performance and costs under the contract. Following discussion and agreement on the SOW, a Breakdown of Costs (BOC) must be completed (using the BOC, BOC-CPFF or BOC-NBR as applicable) and submitted to ODOT’s PM. A BOC must demonstrate subcontractor utilization to meet the Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) goal set forth in the RFP.

Negotiations are anticipated to be completed (ready to submit to for legal sufficiency) within 2 months of this notice.

If the schedule for negotiations cannot be met and the Consultant and ODOT are negotiating in good faith, additional time may be mutually agreed upon.

If agreement on costs, tasks, or other WOC requirements cannot be reached within this time frame, ODOT may terminate the negotiations.

Note that no work is authorized until the contract is executed and Consultant has received a written NTP from the ODOT PM.

Because this notice is being emailed, the date of this notice will start the protest period for competing proposers to submit a written selection protest (REF Section 1.3.2 of the RFP). Any proposer who claims to have been adversely affected or aggrieved by the selection of a higher ranked proposer must deliver a written selection protest to my attention and received at the email address below no later than 4:00 p.m. on 10/31/24. ODOT shall not consider a selection protest submitted after the deadline established herein. To be adversely affected or aggrieved, a protestor must demonstrate that the protester was ranked higher than other selected proposers and that higher ranked proposers are ineligible for selection.

ODOT would like to thank each Proposer for your time and efforts in preparing a response to this solicitation.

Sincerely, Stacie Olano
