RFP Score Sheet _ Engineer Selection City of .pdf

This is a Qualification Evaluation Form for the City of Nashville, Georgia, used to assess and score engineering firms submitting proposals for pre- and post-award services related to community and economic development projects. The City of Nashville is soliciting qualifications from engineering firms to provide comprehensive services including preliminary engineering report preparation, planning, design, cost estimating, bidding, contracting, construction oversight, quality control, and project closeout. The projects focus on critical public infrastructure improvements such as severe weather notification systems, water and sewer systems, street paving, and drainage solutions. The evaluation form does not specify explicit response deadlines, site visit requirements, or bidders' conferences, though the referenced RFP documents contain additional details on these procedural requirements.

The evaluation criteria consist of six weighted factors: the firm's ability to supply all major engineering disciplines, experience with similar construction projects, knowledge of the Nashville community, staff expertise, prior experience with Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) projects, and cost competitiveness. Scoring uses a four-point scale ranging from Poor (1) to Excellent (4). The funding sources include federal and state programs administered through the Georgia Department of Community Affairs, specifically CDBG Annual Competition, CDBG Disaster Recovery (CDBG-DR), Employee Incentive Program (EIP), Redevelopment Fund (RDF), and Immediate Threat and Danger (ITAD) funds. All contracts are subject to federal and state provisions prescribed by the Georgia DCA and cover multiple projects over a limited time period contingent on grant funding. The evaluation form also requires verification that selected firms carry Errors and Omissions insurance and can meet preliminary engineering report deadlines. This contract opportunity is designated as a Section 3 Covered Contract, and Section 3 Business Concerns are encouraged to apply.
