About this file
This Award Information document details the procurement results for Cherokee County, Georgia's request for competitive proposals to provide comprehensive on-site medical, dental, and mental health services for inmates at the Cherokee County Adult Detention Center. The RFP (2023-022) was advertised for 15 or more standard days, with submissions received on July 25, 2023, and award documentation prepared on July 25, 2023. The County received five responsive and responsible proposals from qualified vendors. First Class Healthcare was selected as the awardee based on the best value determination, having achieved the highest technical score of 51.4 points combined with favorable negotiated pricing. The resulting contract is a three-year purchase order (Contract Number 024-2023-00) with two additional one-year renewal options, commencing with a first-year value of $5,750,400 and a total three-year contract value of $17,773,911.36.
The evaluation methodology weighted technical requirements at 60 percent and cost at 40 percent, with pricing adjusted to cost per full-time equivalent (FTE) and then divided by technical scores to evaluate value per compliance factor. First Class Healthcare proposed 23.7 FTEs at an initial proposed cost of $19,840,768.00 over three years but, following procurement director negotiations targeting a staffing level of 21.3 FTEs, the final negotiated price was reduced to $17,773,911.36. Key negotiation concessions included reducing the insurance requirement from $2 million per/$5 million aggregate to $1 million per/$5 million aggregate and changing medication responsibility from full provider coverage to a 50/50 shared arrangement after $520,000 in annual medication costs. The contract is funded through general funds, with no debarred or suspended vendors involved. The facility operates with an average inmate population of 550 to 600 inmates, with pricing scaled for population scenarios of 550, 600, and 750 inmates annually.

Subject: Price Scoring & Negotiation Results
From: Dale Jordan
Initial Scoring of Pricing – see Proposed Pricing & Points Earned – Initial and Final Scoring charts below.
Staffing levels are the highest cost in inmate medical delivery; the higher the level the higher probability of meeting all needs of the inmates and those contracting with the medical service provider. In order to fairly evaluate the price in relation to the staffing level proposed and not reward those who understaff or punish those that proposed higher staffing levels, a series of steps are used in the analysis of the pricing. First, the proposed amounts were adjusted to a cost per number of proposed full time equivalents (FTE).
Example: $6,200,000 proposed price / 23.7 FTEs = $837,163 per FTE
This amount per FTE is then divided by the technical score to arrive at dollars per scope of work compliance factor (bang for the buck).
Example: $’s per FTE / 51.4 = $16,300
This factor was then evaluated, with 40 points awarded to the lowest value and the balance proportionate to the lowest cost factor.
Example: Vital Core had the lowest cost factor and earned 40 points
First Class 11% over Vital Core, First Class was off by 11%, so they earned 89% of 40 points, or 35.6.
Those scores were then used along with the technical scores to determine the short list.
Final Scoring after interview scoring favored First Class Healthcare.
