Best Value - Ranking Approach

The Commonwealth intends to award a contract to the vendor, whose offer, conforming to the request for quotation, is the most advantageous on the basis of "best value" for all products, services, and requirements contained herein.

An evaluation committee, or a designated individual, will evaluate the information provided by the vendor in response to the established measurable criteria contained in the request for quotation.

Price: 90 points Years Company/Individual has been in the janitorial business: 10 points

Document Description Page 8

Each vendor is responsible for submitting all relevant, factual and correct information with their offer to enable the evaluator(s) to afford each vendor the maximum score based on the available data submitted by the Vendor.

If adequate space is not available, the vendor must attach additional information that clearly cross-references the appropriate location in the request for quotation (i.e. page number, paragraph, subject, etc.).

A bidder shall submit one (1) response to a request for quotation and shall not propose more than one (1) model/brand for each item listed in the request for quotation, except for requested tier pricing.

Multiple or alternate bids offering more than one (1) bid price in total or by line item shall be rejected.

Vendors responding with the minimum Best Value requirements in this request for quotation shall not be credited with Best Value points. Vendors responding with greater than the minimum requirements shall receive Best Value points. Failure to provide adequate information will impact the evaluated points awarded to the vendor.

PRICE (90 points) The bidder with the lowest Price receives the maximum score. The bidder with the next lowest Price receives points by dividing the lowest Price by the next lowest price and multiplying that percentage by the available points. For example, 90 points is allocated to the lowest Price criteria for this procurement, bidder “A” bids $3.00 as the lowest bidder and receives the maximum 90 points ($3.00 / $3.00 = 1.00 x 90 = 90). Assume bidder “B” is the next lowest bidder at $4.00, then “B” receives 67.5 points ($3.00 / $4.00) = .75 x 90 = 67.5).

YEARS IN BUSINESS 10 points That bidder with the highest years in business will received 10 points. Other offers will be scored by dividing the most years by the next most years and multiplying the available points by that resulting percentage.

For example, if the most years is 20 years, that bidder receives 10 points. If the next number of years is 15 years, that bidder receives .75 points. (15/20 = .75 X 10 = 7.5 points, etc.)

Best Value scoring is subject to Reciprocal preference for Kentucky resident bidders and Preferences for a Qualified Bidder or the Department of Corrections, Division of Prison Industries (KAR 200 5:410).

KRS 45A.494 Reciprocal preference to be given by public agencies to resident bidders -- List of states -- Administrative regulations.

(1) Prior to a contract being awarded to the lowest responsible and responsive bidder on a contract by a public agency, a resident bidder of the Commonwealth shall be given a preference against a nonresident bidder registered in any state that gives or requires a preference to bidders from that state. The preference shall be equal to the preference given or required by the state of the nonresident bidder.

The cabinet shall also promulgate administrative regulations in accordance with KRS Chapter 13A establishing the procedure by which the preferences required by this section shall be given.

(7) The preference for resident bidders shall not be given if the preference conflicts with federal law.

(8) Any public agency soliciting or advertising for bids for contracts shall make KRS 45A.490 to 45A.494 part of the request for quotation or advertisement for bids.

The reciprocal preference as described in KRS 45A.490-494 above shall be applied in accordance with

A nonresident bidder shall submit, along with its response, its certificate of authority to transact business in the Commonwealth as filed with the Commonwealth of Kentucky, Secretary of State. The location of the principal office identified therein shall be deemed the state of residency for that bidder. If the bidder is not required by law to obtain said certificate, the state of residency for that bidder shall be deemed to be that which is identified in its mailing address as provided in its bid.
