This is a scoring criteria document for the City of Sarasota's Citywide Continuing Professional Services (CCNA) solicitation in Florida. The City is establishing a pool of qualified professional service firms to provide on-demand professional services across various city departments and projects under Florida's Consultants' Competitive Negotiation Act (CCNA), Florida Statutes 287.055. Services will be authorized through individual task assignments or work orders issued during the agreement term. The solicitation seeks firms with demonstrated experience, technical expertise, and organizational capacity to support the City's ongoing and future needs. The City may select multiple firms and does not guarantee a minimum amount of work.

The evaluation of proposals is structured on a 100-point scoring system across four categories: Qualifications of Company (15 points), which assesses firm qualifications, relevant experience, organizational capacity, company introduction, and executive summary; Personnel (30 points), evaluating the qualifications of key personnel; Relevant Project Experience and References (30 points), examining past projects and references to validate the proposer's experience and past performance; and Approach and Methodology (25 points), assessing the proposer's understanding of the scope of services and proposed approach, methodology, and project management practices. No pricing information, set-asides, incumbent status, or specific contract term details are outlined in this scoring criteria document.
