Summary Explanation/Background
THE PURCHASING DIVISION AND THE PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT/HIGHWAY CONSTRUCTION AND ENGINEERING DIVISION RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF THE ABOVE MOTION.
The Office of Economic and Small Business Development (OESBD) established a County Business Enterprise participation goal of 32% for this project. The OESBD determined that this project is not subject to the Broward County Workforce Investment Program (Exhibit 2).
The purpose of this solicitation is to engage the services of a qualified firm to provide consulting services for lighting and sidewalk improvements for Boulevard Gardens, Roosevelt Gardens and Washington Park located in unincorporated Broward (Broward Municipal Services District). The project consists of sidewalk additions with ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) improvements, improvements to existing lighting system, milling and resurfacing, signing and marking, and landscaping.
The Request for Proposals (RFP) method of procurement was selected for this project to best serve the County with additional evaluation criteria. The RFP method provides for predefined evaluation criteria for ranking of firms based upon the required specialized technical expertise. Due to the requirements of the Consultants’ Competitive Negotiation Act (CCNA), this RFP will not use price as an evaluation criterion; and therefore, proposers are required to determine the best method to accomplish the specialized services as outlined in the RFP (Exhibit 1).
