About this file

This document is an Addendum No. 2 issued by the Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners for the RP004-24 solicitation for Provision of Architectural & Engineering (A&E) Design Services and Support for the Gwinnett Place Transit Center for the Department of Transportation. The addendum addresses questions from potential proposers, including clarification that there is no mandatory Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) goal, but the County requests proposers to include their experience and utilization of DBE firms, which will be evaluated. It confirms that Phase 2 work will be procured through a separate RFP, and that the County intends to award to a single prime consultant firm, who may utilize subconsultants. The addendum also corrects a typo regarding the required 11x17 page size.

The document also includes a sign-in sheet from the pre-bid conference, listing the attendees and their contact information. Pricing for this contract will be determined based on a comparison of the competitive cost proposals received, rather than a FAR audit. There is no indication of any incumbent contractor or specific funding sources mentioned in the addendum.

May 10, 2024 Addendum No. 2

RP004-24

Provision of Architectural & Engineering (A&E) Design Services and Support for the Gwinnett Place

Transit Center

Questions:

Q1. Will the hourly rates to be included in the Cost Proposal be subject to FAR audit, or will price reasonableness be determined by comparison of the competitive cost proposals received?

A1. County staff does not have expertise on FAR audits, please contact FAR auditors for this question.

Q2. Can you confirm that there is not a mandatory DBE goal, and clarify whether the DBE will or will not be part of the scoring criteria?

A2. The current Ride Gwinnett DBE Goal determines the race neutral DBE participation which includes any time a DBE wins a prime contract through customary competitive procurement procedures or is awarded a subcontract on a prime contract that does not carry a DBE contract goal. To encourage proposers to make every effort to contract with Georgia certified DBE firms, the County requests the proposers to include their experience with DBE entities, use of DBE and level of efforts contracting with DBE firms as part of company background information, under the statement of qualifications, experience, capacity and reference of the firm, which will be evaluated.

Q3. Will Phase 2 work be automatically awarded to the winner of Phase 1 and 3 bid proposals?

A3. Ride Gwinnett anticipates a separate RFP for Phase 2 when it is ready to move forward.

Q4. Will A/E firms be given preferential consideration over independently operated joint-respondent architectural and engineering consultant teams?

A4. Proposing firms may choose to subcontract some services under this agreement. However the County intends to award to one prime firm. The prime firm is welcome to use subconsultants. Joint ventures will not be accepted.

Q5. Can you confirm that the 11x16 page size noted within the request on page 40 is a typo and should be 11x17 instead?

A5. Yes, it was a typo as it should be 11x17.

Acknowledge receipt of this addendum on the firm information page of the request for proposal.

Sincerely, Michael Milstein Purchasing Associate II
