LAP Evaluation Form.xlsx

This document is a Local Administered Project (LAP) Evaluation Form used by the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) to assess consultant performance on state and local projects. The form evaluates consultants across two primary rating categories: Management and Prosecution/Progress. The Management section assesses the consultant's resource management, independence from agency staff, adherence to scope of work, and communication and cooperation with GDOT personnel. The Prosecution and Progress section evaluates whether deliverables were completed by agreed-upon dates, whether invoices and reports are complete and accurate with minimal revisions, and whether work was completed within the assigned budget. Each evaluation factor is scored on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 indicating performance that exceeds requirements and expectations, 3 indicating performance that meets requirements and expectations, and 1 indicating performance that does not meet requirements and expectations.

The evaluation form employs a weighted scoring methodology where total scores are calculated based on the number of rating factors completed, with values ranging from 50 points for a single rating of 5 to 2.5 points for a single rating of 1. The form requires documentation of justifications for all scores provided by the GDOT Project Manager or Subject Matter Expert, with space for consultant response if applicable. Signatures and acknowledgments are required from the GDOT Project Manager, Agency Evaluator's Supervisor, and Consultant Project Manager. Additionally, acknowledgments from the GDOT Assistant Office Head and Office Head are mandated if any evaluation factor receives a rating of 1, indicating substandard performance that does not meet contract requirements and expectations.
