1. Purpose. This request for proposals (RFP) provides information to enable potential Offerors to prepare and submit proposals for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania's consideration.

2. Determination to use Competitive Sealed Proposal Method. The Commonwealth, through the issuing office, has determined that the competitive sealed proposals process is the most practical and advantageous method for awarding contracts to obtain the best value for the Commonwealth.

3. Issuing Office. The Department of Transportation (PennDOT) (“Issuing Office”) has issued this RFP on behalf of the Commonwealth. The sole point of contact in the Commonwealth for this RFP shall be the Contact listed above, who is the Issuing Officer for this RFP.

Please refer all inquiries to the Issuing Officer. Any violation of this condition may be cause for the Issuing Office to reject the offending Offeror's proposal.

4. Project Description. PennDOT currently utilizes Truck Mounted Attenuators (TMAs) to help ensure roadside worker safety during construction and maintenance activities. These specialized vehicles, equipped with impact-absorbing devices, are designed to reduce the severity of collisions involving errant vehicles that may enter work zones. TMAs are strategically positioned behind work crews, acting as a protective barrier to shield workers from potential accidents and minimize the risk of injuries.

PennDOT in an effort to enhance highway worker safety is seeking an automated upgrade to an existing TMA to make it an autonomous follower vehicle. PennDOT anticipates the first leader installation will be on a painting truck, but is subject to Department needs. Potential items that could impact the way PennDOT provides transportation services are:

1. The Automated Truck Mounted Attenuator (ATMA) will be used in the Automated Driving Systems (ADS) Demonstration if the system procurement is completed before the end of the ADS Demonstration project. The project is investigating how automated vehicles can be safely integrated into work zones. More information on this project can be found on the PennDOT website: https://www.penndot.pa.gov/ads.

2. ATMA efforts through American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) and/or the member states may result

28. Evaluation Criteria. The Issuing Office has selected a committee of qualified personnel to review and evaluate timely submitted proposals. The following criteria will be used in evaluating each proposal:

A. Technical:The Issuing Office has established the weight for the Technical criterion for this RFP as 65% of the total points. Evaluation will be based upon the following: Soundness of Approach, Offeror Qualifications. The final Technical scores are determined by giving the maximum number of technical points available to the proposal(s) with the highest raw technical score. The remaining proposals are rated by applying the Technical Scoring Formula set forth at the following webpage: https://www.dgs.pa.gov/Materials-Services- Procurement/Procurement-Resources/Pages/RFP_SCORING_FORMULA.aspx

B. Cost: The Issuing Office has established the weight for the Cost criterion for this RFP as 35% of the total points. The cost criterion is rated by giving the proposal with the lowest total cost the maximum number of Cost points available. The remaining proposals are rated by applying the Cost Formula set forth at the following webpage: https://www.dgs.pa.gov/Materials- Services-Procurement/Procurement- Resources/Pages/RFP_SCORING_FORMULA.aspx

C. Domestic Workforce Utilization: Any points received for the Domestic Workforce Utilization criterion are bonus points in addition to the total points for this RFP. The maximum amount of bonus points available is 3% of the total points for this RFP. To the extent permitted by the laws and treaties of the United States, each proposal will be scored for its commitment to use domestic workforce in the fulfillment of the contract.

Maximum consideration will be given to those Offerors who will perform the contracted direct labor exclusively within the geographical boundaries of the United States or within the geographical boundaries of a country that is a party to the World Trade Organization Government Procurement Agreement. Those who propose to perform a portion of the direct labor outside of the United States and not within the geographical boundaries of a party to the World Trade Organization Government Procurement Agreement will receive a correspondingly smaller score for this criterion.

The Domestic Workforce Utilization Formula is at the following webpage:

https://www.dgs.pa.gov/Materials-Services-Procurement/Procurement- Resources/Pages/RFP_SCORING_FORMULA.aspx

29. PennDOT’s Act 89 Diverse Business (DB) Participation Program. T

This program established under Section 303 of Title 74 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, 74 Pa.C.S. § 303 (Act 89 DB Participation Program), requires Offerors to make good faith efforts to identify, solicit and utilize

Diverse Business (DB) subcontractors. A list of the requirements constituting good faith efforts and all other additional information concerning DB participation in this contract is contained in RFP Questions Group 1.4:

PennDOT’s Act 89 Diverse Business Participation Program.

Any subcontractors meeting the Diverse Business requirements, who have NOT received a verification determination from PennDOT's Bureau of Workforce and Business Opportunity (BWBO), should visit BWBO's Diverse Business website (https://www.pa.gov/agencies/penndot/about-penndot/equal-opportunity-equity/diverse-business-db-program.html) to complete a Non-ECMS Diverse Business Verification (EO-386). Offerors should make every effort to ensure their identified DB subcontractors are verified by BWHO prior to the due date and time of the RFP.

30. Offeror Responsibility. To be responsible, an Offeror must submit a responsive proposal and possess the capability to fully perform the contract requirements in all respects and the integrity and reliability to assure good faith performance of the contract. In order for an Offeror to be considered responsible for this RFP and therefore eligible for selection for best and final offers or selection for contract negotiations, the total score for the technical submittal of the Offeror’s proposal must be greater than or equal to 75% of the available technical points and the Offeror must demonstrate the financial capability to assure good faith performance of the contract.

An Offeror who fails to demonstrate sufficient financial capability to assure good faith performance of the contract as specified herein may be considered by the Issuing Office, in its sole discretion, for Best and Final Offers or contract negotiation contingent upon such Offeror providing contract performance security for the first contract year cost proposed by the Offeror in a form acceptable to the Issuing Office. Based on the financial condition of the Offeror, the Issuing Office may require a certified or bank (cashier's) check, letter of credit, or performance bond conditioned upon the faithful performance of the contract by the Offeror. The required performance security must be issued or executed by a bank or surety company authorized to do business in the Commonwealth. The cost of the required performance security will be the sole responsibility of the Offeror and cannot increase the Offeror's cost proposal or the contract cost to the Commonwealth.

Further, the Issuing Office will award a contract only to an Offeror determined to be responsible in accordance with the most current version of Commonwealth Management Directive 215.9, Contractor Responsibility Program.

31. Final Ranking and Award. After any best and final offer process is conducted, the Issuing Office will combine the evaluation committee’s final http://www.oa.pa.gov/Policies/md/Documents/215_9.pdf http://www.oa.pa.gov/Policies/md/Documents/215_9.pdf technical scores, the final cost scores, and the domestic workforce utilization scores. The Issuing Office will rank responsible Offerors according to the total overall score assigned to each in descending order. The Issuing Office must select for contract negotiations the Offeror with the highest overall score. The Issuing Office has the discretion to reject all proposals or cancel the request for proposals at any time prior to the time a contract is fully executed when it is in the best interests of the Commonwealth. The reasons for the rejection or cancellation shall be made part of the contract file.
