Evaluation Criteria Scorecard Summary

This is an Evaluation Criteria Scorecard prepared by the Massachusetts Department of Education (DESE) for solicitation 27TALLB2 (COMMBUYS Document #BD-27-1026-DOE02-DOE01-134176) located at 135 Santilli Highway, Everett, MA 02148. The solicitation seeks a contractor to provide professional learning, coaching, technical assistance, and implementation support focused on mentor training and development for K-12 districts and educator preparation programs. The scope includes designing and delivering high-quality professional learning through asynchronous, virtual, hybrid, and in-person formats; supporting districts in developing sustainable mentor systems and educator preparation partnerships; and facilitating apprenticeship implementation, clinical placements, and continuous improvement initiatives. The evaluation process requires bidders to meet all four Required Qualifications criteria (scored as yes/no) before advancing to additional evaluation sections. Successful contractors must demonstrate expertise in culturally responsive and linguistically sustaining mentorship practices and experience with the Massachusetts Standards for Effective Practice.

The scorecard establishes a maximum of 100 points across eight evaluation criteria, with individual category multipliers ranging from 1x to 4x. Budget constraints limit the FY2027 award to a maximum of $150,000, with bidders required to submit a proposed budget for FY2028. The evaluation framework emphasizes relevant expertise and outcomes (15 points), quality of mentor professional learning and coaching proposals (20 points), clear plans for modules and district support (15 points), equity and continuous improvement integration (15 points), staff qualifications and organizational capacity (5 points), realistic project timelines (15 points), and budget reasonableness (10 points). The scorecard serves as the official evaluation instrument for agency staff and will be completed by designated reviewers to assess all responses submitted to the solicitation.
