HHS0016834 Exhibit G Evaluation Tool Summary
This is an evaluation tool document for a fire alarm system upgrade project managed by the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) at the Austin State Supported Living Center. The project, designated 24-101-AUL, involves the installation of new, NFPA 72 code-compliant fire alarm systems in Buildings 533 and 732, including removal of existing systems and installation of addressable fire alarm components with smoke and carbon monoxide detection. The scope includes approximately one Notification Appliance Circuit panel per level, a Digital Alarm Communicator Transmitter for off-site monitoring, and new fiber optic transmission lines between buildings. Two mandatory facility site visits are scheduled for December 11 and 16, 2025, with an optional pre-proposal webinar on December 10, 2025. The proposal submission deadline is January 14, 2026, with a separate Historically Underutilized Business (HUB) subcontracting plan deadline of January 15, 2026. Contract award is anticipated on February 10, 2026. Work must be performed with minimal disruption to the occupied facility, typically requiring night and weekend activities.
The evaluation criteria allocate 30 percent to construction services ability, 5 percent to quality and safety programs, 25 percent to proposed methodology, and 40 percent to pricing, with the contract awarded to the respondent offering the best value. Minimum qualifications require five years of similar construction services experience, financial solvency certification, a compliant HUB subcontracting plan for contracts exceeding $100,000, and three comparable project references. A security bond of not less than 5 percent of the potential total proposed cost is required. The project budget is approximately $280,000 under a fixed-price agreement structure. Contractors must maintain an "A" rating from ISNetWorld, employ a field project manager with NICET Level III fire alarm certification, and provide a designer with equivalent professional credentials. The contract is subject to Texas Government Code provisions and governed by Texas law, with venue in Travis County.
