Universal Citation: NJ Admin Code 16:72-4.2

Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 24, December 18, 2024

(a) NJ TRANSIT may solicit bids/proposals for design-build projects and set forth the selection criteria in the solicitation documents, which may include either a one-step or two-step evaluation process depending on the size and complexity of the project.

(b) A one-step process for procuring a particular design-build project will solicit separate qualification and pricing packages and can be awarded, as described in the solicitation, based on either:

1. An award to the lowest priced proposal from a firm meeting the technical qualification requirements of the solicitation; or

2. An award to that firm whose proposal represents the best value, as determined based on a predetermined combination of technical merit and price elements, which may include price, schedule, and technical approach.

(c) A two-step evaluation process may be stated in the solicitation documents for a particular design-build project that separates the review of the technical proposal from the price as follows:

1. During the first step, the bidders'/proposers' technical qualifications and overall technical approach to the project will be evaluated to determine those firms that fall within the competitive range of satisfactory qualifications and a demonstrated technically satisfactory approach. Those firms in the competitive range will be invited to proceed to the next step; and

2. During the second step, complete technical proposals and price proposals for the project will be solicited and evaluated.
