LAP Evaluation Form.xlsx

This is a Local Administered Project (LAP) Evaluation Form used by the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) to assess consultant performance on state and local engineering design services contracts. The form evaluates consultants across two primary rating categories: Management and Prosecution/Progress. The Management section assesses resource management, consultant independence, scope adherence, and communication and cooperation with GDOT staff across four evaluation factors. The Prosecution and Progress section evaluates three factors: timely completion of deliverables, quality and completeness of invoices and reports with minimal revisions, and budget compliance. Each factor is rated on a scale of 5 (Exceeds Requirement and Expectation), 3 (Meets Requirement and Expectation), 1 (Does not Meet Requirement and Expectation), or N/A, with a scoring methodology that weights ratings based on the number of factors evaluated.

The evaluation form includes required justification sections for GDOT Project Managers and Subject Matter Experts to document the rationale for scores assigned, with provisions for consultant responses to evaluations. Acknowledgments from the GDOT Assistant Office Head and Office Head are mandatory if any factor receives a rating of 1. The form requires signatures from the GDOT Project Manager, Consultant Project Manager, and applicable supervisory personnel, along with Local comments and acknowledgments. This evaluation instrument is designed to be applied to engineering and design consultant services procured through the RFQ-484-042726 Batch #1 process for 2026 Engineering Design Services in Georgia, providing a standardized mechanism for assessing consultant performance and accountability on GDOT-administered projects.
