AI Contract Overview
The contract involves the provision and installation of a mobile driving simulator lab designed for fire and emergency medical services training. The vendor is responsible for delivering a fully equipped trailer with advanced simulation technology, including a central lecture-style training area with flexible floor space, multiple LED monitors, OEM parts, and a high-performance gaming-grade computer system. The simulator must feature immersive virtual reality capabilities, including VR headsets with see-through reality, and be capable of seamlessly linking to fire pump panels within the trailer. The trailer specifications include insulation, air-ride suspension, a diesel generator, HVAC system, LED lighting, and various exterior and interior features such as entry doors, storage, and communication systems, all covered by a two-year warranty. The project emphasizes timely delivery, with a requirement to demonstrate the ability to deliver the product by May 1, 2025, and provide training on its use. Vendors must showcase previous experience with similar mobile simulation builds, detail their team’s qualifications, and meet specific technical and quality standards to qualify for evaluation. The selection process involves a scoring system based on technical merit and cost efficiency, with proposals needing a minimum score of 1000 out of 1250 points to proceed. The contract size ranges from $500,000 to $1,500,000, and the process includes opportunities for negotiations and final submissions of best and final offers.

Technical Proposal Score Sheet Scoring of Technical Proposal Technical Proposals will be collectively scored by a Proposal Review Team (PRT) appointed by COM. For each of the evaluation criteria given in the score sheet, reviewers will collectively judge whether the technical proposal does not meet, partially meets, meets or exceeds each criterion, and assign the appropriate point value. The scoring is by consensus and one official score sheet will be completed for each technical proposal that is scored.
Criteria for Considering the Cost Proposal The cost proposal will be reviewed by the PRT. The grand total of the vendor’s cost proposal will be divided by that vendor’s final technical proposal score. This compares the cost with the quality of the technical proposal, which will provide an average cost-per-quality point earned on the technical proposal.
COM may, at its sole discretion, negotiate with all technically qualifying vendors for a revised cost proposal. Vendors may then: 1) Submit one last and best offer; 2) request that COM view its original cost proposal as its last and best offer; or 3) May formally withdraw from further consideration. The vendor shall formally indicate its choice according to directions provided by COM at that time. Upon receipt of all last and best offers, COM will then consider those vendors’ revised cost proposals.
Initial Qualifying Criteria The proposal must meet all of the following proposal acceptance criteria in order to be considered for further evaluation. Any proposal receiving a “no” response to any of the following qualifying criteria shall be disqualified from consideration.
ITEM#PROPOSAL ACCEPTANCE CRITERIAYESNO1Provide three (3) examples of previous builds on mobile driving/pump simulation training trailers for fire and emergency medical services apparatus. 2Provide education and qualifications for all individuals within the company that play a role on the project. Define the role of each participant and specific contributions to each role on the project. 3Demonstrate the ability to provide the product on or before May 1, 2025, and training of product usage.
Criteria for Scoring of Technical Proposal Qualifying technical proposals will be collectively scored by a Proposal Review Team (PRT) appointed by COM. For each of the evaluation criteria given in the following score sheet, reviewers will collectively judge whether the technical proposal exceeds, meets, partially meets or does not meet the requirements expressed in the RFP, and assign the appropriate point value, as follows:
06810Does Not Meet RequirementPartially Meets RequirementMeets RequirementExceeds Requirement Technical Performance Scoring Definitions: “Does Not Meet Requirement”- A particular RFP requirement was not addressed in the vendor’s proposal, Score: 0“Partially Meets Requirement”-Vendor proposal demonstrates some attempt at meeting a particular RFP requirement, but that attempt falls below acceptable level, Score: 6“Meets Requirement”-Vendor proposal fulfills a particular RFP requirement in all material respects, potentially with only minor, non-substantial deviation, Score: 8“Exceeds Requirement”-Vendor proposal fulfills a particular RFP requirement in all material respects, and offers some additional level of quality in excess of COM expectations, Score: 10A technical proposal’s total score will be the sum of the point value for all the evaluation criteria. The review team will collectively score each individual qualifying proposal. Technical proposals which do not meet or exceed a total score of at least 1000 points (a score which represents that the selected vendor has the capability to successfully perform the project/program services) out of a maximum of 1250 points, will be disqualified from further consideration, and its cost proposal will neither be opened nor considered. Only those vendors whose Technical Proposals meet or exceed the minimum required technical points will advance in the evaluation process.ITEM #EVALUATION CRITERIAWeightingDoesn’t Meet0PartiallyMeets6Meets8Exceeds10WORK REQUIREMENTS 1Provide three (3) examples of previous builds on mobile driving/pump simulation training trailers for fire and emergency medical services apparatus. 20 2Provide education and qualifications for all individuals within the company that play a role on the project.
