RFP 260469 “Towing and Recovery Services”

Please review the procurement plan for the subject RFP and advise your concurrence with the evaluation criteria and contract elements. Include suggested evaluation team members and/or comments. Thanks.

Procurement Type: RFP IFB

A Request for Proposals (RFP) is issued as the nature of the procurement demands that evaluation criteria, in addition to price, be used to select a firm.

Evaluation Criteria:

PROPOSAL WEIGHT

Qualifications of the Firm 30% Staffing/Project Organization 20% Work Plan 25% Cost 25% Justification:

The criteria are structured to select a contractor that can safely and reliably support OCTA’s towing and recovery needs. Greater weight is placed on qualifications and work plan to ensure demonstrated experience, proper equipment, and effective response procedures. Staffing is weighted to evaluate coverage and operator capability. Cost is weighted at 25% in accordance with requirements; however, due to the safety-sensitive and operational nature of these services, experience and reliability are prioritized to reduce risk and service disruption.

Georgia Martinez Cross-Out The greatest weight is placed on qualification of the firm at 30 percent as the firm must demonstrate relevant experience performing similar towing and recovery services. Staffing and Project Organization is weighted at 20 percent to ensure sufficient operator coverage is available for these as-needed services. Work Plan and Cost and Price are weighted equally at 25 percent to ensure the firm demonstrates its approach to meeting the requirements of the scope at the level of service required and ensure that OCTA receives competitive pricing to perform these services.
