Notice of Intent to Award

Kittelson & Associates, Inc. is the top-ranked firm selected for negotiations of a Work Order Contract (WOC) to provide Personal Services as specified in the above referenced Mini-Solicitation. The scores and rankings of all Proposers are shown in the score matrix accompanying this notice. The award submittal requirements stated in the Mini-Solicitation are summarized on Attachment 1 of this notice.

Robert DeVassie will be the ODOT Project Manager (PM) for this Project. ODOT’s PM will initiate contact with Consultant and will be the primary contact for negotiation of the statement of work (SOW), schedule of performance and costs under the WOC. Following discussion and agreement on the SOW, a Breakdown of Costs (BOC) must be completed (using the BOC, BOC-CPFF or BOC-NBR as applicable) and submitted to ODOT’s PM. A BOC must demonstrate subcontractor utilization to meet the Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) goal set forth in the Mini-Solicitation.

Negotiations are anticipated to be completed (ready to submit to for legal sufficiency) within the schedule set forth by the ODOT PM.

If the schedule for negotiations cannot be met and the Consultant and ODOT are negotiating in good faith, additional time may be mutually agreed upon.

If agreement on costs, tasks, or other WOC requirements cannot be reached within this time frame, ODOT may terminate the negotiations and begin negotiations with the next highest ranked firm as provided in the solicitation and governing Oregon Administrative Rules (OARs).

Note that no work is authorized until the WOC is executed and Consultant has received a written NTP from the ODOT PM.

ODOT would like to thank each Proposer for your time and efforts in preparing a response to this solicitation.

Sincerely, Jo’nyee Robinson, Procurement and Contract Specialist Phone: 503-310-3726 Email: Jonyee.robinson@odot.oregon.gov Proposer’s Scores and Rankings

Direct Deposit via Automated Clearing House (ACH). For Consultants that receive ongoing monthly payments from Agency on one or more contracts or work orders, Agency prefers making Consultant payments via ACH direct deposit. While not required, if Consultant has not previously authorized ACH direct deposit and would prefer ACH to expedite transfer of payments after invoices are approved, Consultant must complete a Vendor ACH Authorization form and submit to Agency per the instructions on the form. To expedite Consultant’s payments to its subcontractors, if applicable, Consultant should make reasonable efforts to offer ACH direct deposit payments.
