Questions & answers

AI-generated

What is the process for this procurement?

This is a two-step procurement. Step 1 is a Request for Technical Proposals (RFTP) for non-priced technical submissions. The Evaluation Committee will assess proposals on a pass/fail basis using stated technical criteria. Firms deemed technically acceptable will be invited to participate in Step 2, a competitive sealed bidding process where pricing proposals will be submitted.

How often will work be issued under the contract, and are there minimum work guarantees?

For each Work Authorization issued under these Contracts METRO will generate a scope of work and independent cost estimate, then request all qualified Trades contractors to submit quotes. METRO will award the Work Authorization to the contractor with the lowest responsive quote. However, METRO reserves the right to contract with other sources for similar services and will use best efforts to issue at least one Work Authorization to the Contractor during the term of this Contract, but there is no minimum expenditure guarantee.

What is the maximum value per work authorization and what is the total program budget?

The total dollar amount for any Work Authorization issued under this Contract shall not exceed $250,000.00 without METRO Board Approval. The total costs for all services provided to METRO under the Multi-Trades Construction Contracts Program shall not exceed a maximum authorized expenditure of $8,000,000.00 across all awarded contractors.

When must contractors have insurance and bonds in place?

Proposers must demonstrate in their technical proposal the capability to obtain the required insurance (through submission of a certificate or letter from insurance agent/broker confirming ability) and provide a notarized statement from a surety certifying minimum $250,000 bonding capacity. Upon award, the successful bidder must provide a current Workers' Compensation Insurance Certificate prior to being awarded the contract. Performance and Payment Bonds must be submitted within fourteen (14) calendar days after receipt of the executed Contract or Notice of Award; the Notice to Proceed will not be issued until properly executed bonds are received and accepted.

What are the requirements for small business participation?

The solicitation level has no small business goal (N/A%). However, for each work authorization exceeding $100,000, METRO will review the scope to determine if a small business participation goal will be assigned. If assigned, the contractor must meet or exceed that goal. All certified and non-certified primes must self-perform a minimum 30% of contract value. If a small business goal is established, a non-certified prime must subcontract at least the goal percentage to certified firms; a certified SBE/DBE prime must subcontract at least 50% of the goal to certified firms. Contractors may not submit Good Faith Effort responses; all subcontractors must be listed on the Contractor Utilization Plan.
