VALIDITY OF OFFER

Method of Award Best Value - Ranking Approach

The Commonwealth intends to award a contract to the vendor, whose offer, conforming to the solicitation, 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 solicitation.

Measurable Criteria: Delete any criteria that is not applicable Cost 80 Points Delivery 15 Points Warranty 5 Points Total Points 100 Points

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.

A bidder shall submit one (1) response to a solicitation and shall not propose more than one (1) model/brand for each item listed in the solicitation, 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 solicitation 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.

COST; maximum 85 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, if 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).

WARRANTY; maximum 5 points

Document Description Page 8

BIDDERS ARE TO ENTER THEIR WARRNTY PERIOD IN MONTHS IN THE SPACE PROVIDED BELOW.

Vendor shall enter best materials, workmanship & installation warranty period: __________ MONTHS

For example, if the best warranty offer is 24 months, that bidder receives maximum points. If the next best warranty offer is 18 months, that bidder receives 75 points. (18/24 = .75 X 5 = 3.75 points, etc.)

DELIVERY; maximum 15 points

Prompt delivery is desired. That bidder with the Best Delivery offer will received maximum points. Other offers will be scored by dividing the best offer by the next best offer and multiplying the available points by that resulting percentage.

For example, if the best delivery offer is 20 days, that bidder receives maximum points. If the next best delivery offer is 30 days, that bidder receives 3.3 points. (20/30 = .666666 X 5 = 3.3 points, etc.)

BIDDERS ARE TO ENTER THEIR DELIVERY OFFER IN CALENDAR DAYS IN THE SPACE PROVIDED

BELOW.

The bidder shall clearly state the delivery time for this procurement. Delivery time must be specific and such phrases as, "as required", "as soon as possible", or "prompt" have no meaning and may result in a non-responsive bid.
