About this file

This is a Technical Proposal Evaluation Worksheet for RFP 303-25-003, Asbestos Abatement at the Devils Lake Central Middle School, administered by the State of North Dakota Procurement Office. The worksheet serves as the standardized evaluation instrument for the Evaluation Committee to assess responsive proposals against established criteria. The document provides comprehensive instructions for evaluation committee members, including the requirement to read all proposals twice—first for general understanding and subsequently for detailed scoring with documentation of questions requiring clarification. Evaluators must demonstrate clear understanding of RFP requirements and evaluation criteria before commencing the assessment process. The technical proposal evaluation comprises two primary criteria: Scope of Work Strategy, weighted at 40 points, and Experience and Qualifications, weighted at 30 points, for a total technical proposal evaluation score of 70 points.

The evaluation worksheet establishes a five-tier rating scale for scoring, ranging from zero points (None—Not addressed or response of no value) to the maximum points allowed per criterion (Excellent—Total applicability). The Scope of Work Strategy criterion evaluates proposal completeness, project management methods, remediation strategy including innovative techniques, subcontracting approach, and identified risks or concerns. The Experience and Qualifications criterion assesses the offeror's demonstration of minimum experience requirements, firm establishment in the field, project team organization with work breakdown and estimated hours, resume quality, and subcontractor or joint venture qualifications. Cost proposals are evaluated separately by the Procurement Officer or selected evaluators after technical evaluation is complete, with evaluation scores subject to adjustment following committee discussions, clarifications, demonstrations, reference checks, and best and final offer submissions.

Instructions

ATTACHMENT 11 - TECHNICAL PROPOSAL EVALUATION WORKSHEET
INSTRUCTIONS

Proposals that are determined to be responsive to the requirements of the RFP will be evaluated by the Evaluation Committee using the evaluation criteria stated in the RFP. For assistance with RFP evaluations, contact the State Procurement Office at infospo@nd.gov or 701-328-2740.

1. If a group evaluation is conducted, the Evaluation Committee will produce one worksheet that summarizes the comments and scores. If individual scores are being compiled, each member of the Evaluation Committee will prepare an evaluation worksheet with their comments and scores.

2. Evaluation Committee members must read the Request for Proposal and have a clear understanding of the requirements and evaluation criteria before attempting to evaluate proposals.

3. It is recommented, that Evaluators read all proposals twice. First, read all proposals for a general understanding without scoring. Next, read proposals with the intent to complete the evaluation worksheet which includes taking notes and documenting any questions/clarification needed.

4. Each evaluation criterion is assigned a specific number of points. The questions under each evaluation criterion help Evaluators measure the quality of the Offeror’s response. Do not assign points to individual questions, instead, award a total score for each evaluation criterion.

5. Evaluators will assign an initial score for each evaluation criterion and provide comments to support scoring..

6. Evaluation documents become an open record upon award.

RATING SCALE FOR TECHNICAL PROPOSAL SCORING

The rating scale provided is intended to help Evaluators perform evaluations. Evaluators are exercising independent judgement so variation in scoring is normal. However, the Procurement Officer may question scoring that appears to be unsupported. Evaluators may assign any value for a given evaluation area from 0 to the maximum number of points allowed per evaluation criterion. A zero value typically constitutes no response or an inability of the Offeror to meet the criteria. In contrast, the maximum value should constitute a high standard of meeting the criteria. For example: “Experience and Qualifications” is an evaluation area weighted at 20% of the total possible points on a 100 Point Scale, so any value between 0 and 20 points can be awarded. An example of the rating scale is below:

Example Rating Scale (20 POINT Maximum)
Point ValueExplanation
0-4None - Not addressed or response of no value
5-8Fair - Limited applicability
9-12Good - Some applicability
13-16Very Good - Substantial applicability
17-20Excellent - Total applicability

COST PROPOSAL

Cost proposals are normally scored by the Procurement Officer or selected evaluators, and cost proposals are given to the Evaluation Committee after technical proposals have been evaluated. Prompt payment discounts are not considered in evaluating cost.

ADJUSTMENT OF INITIAL EVALUATION SCORES

After the initial scoring, the Evaluation Committee should meet to discuss proposals and identify areas where clarification or more information is needed. Evaluation scores may be adjusted as a result of discussions with offerors, clarifications, demonstrations, presentations, reference check results, Best and Final Offers, and further due diligence within the evaluation process.
