This document contains evaluation criteria for a Design Build vertical conveyance systems improvement project submitted by the County of Orange, California. The project encompasses Phases 2, 3, and 4 of vertical conveyance systems improvements at what appears to be a transportation or airport facility. The County is soliciting Statements of Qualifications from qualified design-build firms to provide comprehensive design and construction services. Statements of Qualifications must be submitted by 2:00 pm on Friday, September 18, 2026, with selected respondents advancing to the Request for Proposals phase. The evaluation criteria document establishes the framework and standards by which the County will assess respondent qualifications and proposals for these three project phases.

The criteria document establishes specific evaluation benchmarks and scoring methodologies that respondents must address in their submissions. Key evaluation areas likely include relevant experience with similar vertical conveyance projects, technical qualifications of proposed team members, financial stability and capacity, project management approach, scheduling feasibility, and cost competitiveness. The document provides detailed requirements for how respondents should demonstrate their ability to execute design and construction services concurrently, manage multiple project phases, and meet the County's technical and safety standards for vertical conveyance systems. Respondents selected through the SOQ process will proceed to submit detailed proposals, with final selection and contract award anticipated following the RFP evaluation phase.
