About this file

This document is a Request for Response (RFR) issued by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Department of Corrections (DOC) for the procurement of expert witness services. The RFR seeks to establish a pool of qualified expert witnesses to provide testimony in legal proceedings. The evaluation criteria include the bidder's proposed rate of compensation, credentials and specialty designations, demonstrated correctional experience, and experience providing testimony. Additionally, a Supplier Diversity Plan must be submitted, which will be evaluated for a minimum of 10% of the total points. The RFR allows for the addition of up to 5 discretionary "added value" points at the sole discretion of the Strategic Sourcing Team.

The total points available for this procurement is 165. Bidders will be ranked based on their scores, and the highest-ranking bidders will proceed to subsequent stages of the evaluation and potentially receive a contract award. The term of the contract is not specified, but it may include renewal options. Pricing terms, funding sources, and other salient information are not provided in the document.

5 Evaluation criteria

Bidder scores will be used to rank Bidders and will determine which Bidders will proceed to subsequent stages of the evaluation and/or enter into negotiations with the Department to receive a Contract award.

The Department is looking for the “best value” response which provides the greatest quantify of services at the highest quality.

Below are the criteria and maximum points available:

Criteria Maximum Points Available

Rate of compensation 50 points

Credentials and specialty designation 50 points

Demonstrated correctional experience 25 points

Demonstrated experience providing testimony 25 points

Subtotal: 150 points

Supplier Diversity Plan (min 10% of weight) 15 points

TOTAL POINTS AVAILABLE 165 points

Added Value Up to 5 points for each added value offered as determined by the Department as a viable added value available.

Added Value is determined solely by the Strategic Sourcing Team (SST). Added Value is discretionary. Added Value could be anything in their proposal that the bidder includes, that in the view of the SST, is above and beyond the requirements of the RFR, which the SST determines to be an additional “plus”, and worthy of additional points.

The SST determines the number of added value points on a case by case basis.

5.1.1 Supplier Diversity Plan (minimum of 10% weight)

Bidders responding to this RFR are required to submit a Supplier Diversity Plan. Requirements for the Supplier Diversity Plan are included in Section 8. Pursuant to Operational Services Division policy, the Bidders SDP must be evaluated at least a minimum of 10% of the total evaluation.
