Summary Explanation/Background
THE PURCHASING DIVISION AND THE AVIATION DEPARTMENT RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF THE ABOVE MOTION.
The Office of Economic and Small Business Development (OESBD) established a County Business Enterprise goal of 15% 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 up to three qualified firms to provide professional engineering services to perform pre-design, design services, construction administration and resident project representation services for airport utility and pavement projects at the Broward County Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport and the Broward County North Perry Airport. The projects to be developed under this Request for Proposals (RFP) support existing and future infrastructure and are included in the Scope of Services (Exhibit 1). The duration of services will be for an initial three-year term with the option to renew for two additional one-year periods.
The RFP method of procurement was selected for this project to best serve the County with additional evaluation criteria other than price alone. The RFP method provides for predefined evaluation criteria for ranking of firms based upon the specialized technical expertise. Proposers are required to determine the best method to accomplish these specialized services. Due to the requirements of the Consultants’ Competitive Negotiation Act (CCNA), this RFP will not use price as an evaluation criterion; therefore, proposers are required to determine the best method to accomplish the specialized services as outlined in the RFP (Exhibit 1).
The County Auditor’s Office has reviewed the RFP and all matters were addressed.
