7-Design-Professionals-AE-List Evaluation Sheet.xlsx

This is an evaluation sheet for design professional services (Architecture & Engineering) pre-qualified vendors submitted to the State of Utah Division of Purchasing. The evaluation document outlines the assessment criteria and vendor information collection process for the BD27-106 Design Professional Services Pre-Qualified Vendor List solicitation. The evaluation sheet captures vendor details including company name, contact person, email, phone number, and physical address. Vendors are assessed on the number of references provided, with a passing threshold of five references, and evaluation points are awarded based on whether vendors submit 70 or more references. The document tracks whether all required documents have been submitted by each vendor. The State of Utah established this open-ended pre-qualified vendor list to identify qualified design professional firms available for future architecture and engineering services projects. The prequalification period is 12 months, after which approved vendors must resubmit qualifications for renewal.

The evaluation sheet identifies specific engineering and architectural service categories for vendor qualification, including general architectural, civil, commissioning, electrical, environmental, geological, geotechnical, landscape, mechanical, public/water works, structural, and surveying services. Vendors are systematically evaluated based on their demonstrated experience across these disciplines and their ability to provide adequate project references. The State of Utah Division of Purchasing retains the right to reopen the solicitation at any time, but no less frequently than every 12 months during the term of the approved vendor list, allowing for additional vendors to submit responses as needed. This evaluation mechanism establishes a dynamic pre-qualified list rather than a one-time award, enabling the State to maintain a current roster of qualified design professionals.
