City's_Standard_Form_(Traditional)_Design-Build_Agreement.pdf

This file is the City's Standard Form of Agreement for Design-Build Services, applicable to the City of Pasadena's hydrogen fueling station project in California. The City seeks a qualified design-build contractor to design, build, operate, and maintain a stand-alone hydrogen-fueling station that will utilize delivered liquid hydrogen as the primary storage medium to support the City's planned fleet of fuel cell electric buses. The project will be awarded through a competitive selection process using the Design-Build alternative project delivery method with a single-phased delivery approach. The selection committee will evaluate proposals based on five key criteria: project experience, team composition, project approach and methodology, financial strength, and safety record. Award recommendations will be determined on a best value basis, considering qualifications, organization and team composition, technical proposal, financial strength, safety record, local business status, small business status, price proposal, and interview scores, pursuant to Pasadena Municipal Code section 4.08.047.

The Project is funded in part by the California Energy Commission's Clean Transportation Program and EnergIIZe initiative. The contract will be awarded as a Stipulated Sum Design-Build Contract. The RFP requires submission of Qualification Statements, technical proposals, price proposals, and completed forms and attachments. Proposers must demonstrate capability, responsibility, experience, and accountability to deliver the hydrogen-fueling station infrastructure. The document references the City's Bridging Documents and Design-Build Documents as enumerated in the Standard Form of Agreement. The City is seeking a Design-Builder that demonstrates a collaborative mindset to achieve optimal value within the Project budget and required schedule.
