The checklist helps standardize the evaluation process and ensures all competing firms submit complete applications with consistent documentation.

This responsiveness checklist is part of a competitive procurement process for an estimated contract value between $12,254,154 and $19,913,000. The solicitation includes Addendum 1 addressing DBE CM and GenAI requirements, indicating specialized qualifications and certifications are necessary for consideration. Firms submitting SOQs must utilize this checklist to verify their compliance with all stated requirements prior to submission, reducing the risk of deemed non-responsive applications and supporting fair, equitable evaluation across all bidders participating in the on-call services procurement.
