1. GENERAL INFORMATION

 

1. INTRODUCTION/DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT

Colorado Northwestern Community College (CNCC) is seeking proposals from qualified firms for the repair/replacement of chilled water and cooler tower system pumps, cooling tower media fill, and Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs). Additionally, this project includes upgrading the HVAC control systems. The existing systems are in the Johnson Building mechanical room and services (9) academic buildings includes classrooms, labs, offices, administration, and student service areas.

 All construction related activities will need to occur during the late fall, winter, and early spring months to avoid equipment downtime when cooling is required.

Colorado Northwestern Community College intends to select a Design/Build Entity who will design, manage, and construct the project as described within.  The process to be used in the selection of the firm is comprised of two steps:

STEP I is the Submittal of Prequalification as described in Section II.

STEP II is the Oral Interview/Cost Proposal as described in detail in Section III.

A Jury Panel of individuals who will be involved in the project and/or understand the required services associated with Design/Build Contracting will evaluate responses to this RFP for both STEPS.

Upon completion of the evaluation of the Submittals of Prequalification, a limited number of teams will be invited to the oral interviews.

Sealed cost proposals will be required only from those teams who are interviewed and are to be submitted as indicated in this RFP. Both qualifications and cost will be considered in the final ranking of teams with qualifications given 70% of the value of the weighted criteria and costs in the sealed Cost Proposal given 30%.

Selection and award of this project will be based on a combination of qualifications and costs that represents the best overall value to the State.

NOTES:
 

1. Insert total score from each evaluator's ORAL INTERVIEW/ COST PROPOSALS/EVALUATION FORMS. (Note that the use of the Matrix for the PREQUALIFICATION SUBMITTAL EVALUATION does not consider cost proposals only qualifications). DO NOT combine the scores of the two evaluation forms.

 

2. Add all evaluators’ total scores and divide by the number of evaluators to determine the average score for each team’s qualifications.

 

3. The highest score for qualifications on the evaluation form is to receive 70 points and the other team scores are to be determined as a percentage of the 70 points.  To score each average qualification score, use the example formula.

Assume the highest score is 700.

Scoring of Qualifications
Firm B:             700 x 70 points = 70 points
                        700

Firm C:             600 x 70 points = 60 points
                        700

Firm A:             500 x 70 points = 50 points
                        700

4. Determine score for each team’s sealed cost proposal with the lowest cost being equivalent to a score of 30 points.  To score each cost, use the example formula.

Assume the lowest cost was $100,000.

Scoring of Costs
Firm A:             $100,000 x 30 points = 30 points
                        $100,000

Firm B:             $100,000 x 30 points = 24 points
                        $125,000

Firm C:             $100,000 x 30 points = 20 points
                        $150,000
 

5. Add the average qualification score to the cost score to determine cumulative qualifications and cost score.

6.   Numerically rank all teams with the highest scoring team being the most qualified.

1. GENERAL INFORMATION

 

1. INTRODUCTION/DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT

Colorado Northwestern Community College (CNCC) is seeking proposals from qualified firms for the repair/replacement of chilled water and cooler tower system pumps, cooling tower media fill, and Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs). Additionally, this project includes upgrading the HVAC control systems. The existing systems are in the Johnson Building mechanical room and services (9) academic buildings includes classrooms, labs, offices, administration, and student service areas.

 All construction related activities will need to occur during the late fall, winter, and early spring months to avoid equipment downtime when cooling is required.

Colorado Northwestern Community College intends to select a Design/Build Entity who will design, manage, and construct the project as described within.  The process to be used in the selection of the firm is comprised of two steps:

STEP I is the Submittal of Prequalification as described in Section II.

STEP II is the Oral Interview/Cost Proposal as described in detail in Section III.

A Jury Panel of individuals who will be involved in the project and/or understand the required services associated with Design/Build Contracting will evaluate responses to this RFP for both STEPS.

Upon completion of the evaluation of the Submittals of Prequalification, a limited number of teams will be invited to the oral interviews.

Sealed cost proposals will be required only from those teams who are interviewed and are to be submitted as indicated in this RFP. Both qualifications and cost will be considered in the final ranking of teams with qualifications given 70% of the value of the weighted criteria and costs in the sealed Cost Proposal given 30%.

Selection and award of this project will be based on a combination of qualifications and costs that represents the best overall value to the State.

NOTES:
 

1. Insert total score from each evaluator's ORAL INTERVIEW/ COST PROPOSALS/EVALUATION FORMS. (Note that the use of the Matrix for the PREQUALIFICATION SUBMITTAL EVALUATION does not consider cost proposals only qualifications). DO NOT combine the scores of the two evaluation forms.

 

2. Add all evaluators’ total scores and divide by the number of evaluators to determine the average score for each team’s qualifications.

 

3. The highest score for qualifications on the evaluation form is to receive 70 points and the other team scores are to be determined as a percentage of the 70 points.  To score each average qualification score, use the example formula.

Assume the highest score is 700.

Scoring of Qualifications
Firm B:             700 x 70 points = 70 points
                        700

Firm C:             600 x 70 points = 60 points
                        700

Firm A:             500 x 70 points = 50 points
                        700

4. Determine score for each team’s sealed cost proposal with the lowest cost being equivalent to a score of 30 points.  To score each cost, use the example formula.

Assume the lowest cost was $100,000.

Scoring of Costs
Firm A:             $100,000 x 30 points = 30 points
                        $100,000

Firm B:             $100,000 x 30 points = 24 points
                        $125,000

Firm C:             $100,000 x 30 points = 20 points
                        $150,000
 

5. Add the average qualification score to the cost score to determine cumulative qualifications and cost score.

6.   Numerically rank all teams with the highest scoring team being the most qualified.
