Usedincontext

Establishes the mandatory QBS procedure: all SOQ submitters must be considered, at least three most-qualified firms must be interviewed on detailed criteria, the most qualified firm is selected for negotiation, and if negotiations fail the second-ranked firm is approached. This law is the legal framework within which Firm A's amendment request and the authority's response must be evaluated.

Source Text

The state law and a local ordinance, which applied to the authority, required that all firms submitting statements of interest be considered, that not less than three firms deemed most highly qualified be interviewed to consider in more detail the ability of the professional personnel; past performance; ability to meet time and budget requirements; location of the firms; recent, current, and projected workloads of the firms; and other qualification factors determined by the agency.

Text References

Following these interviews, the agency is required to select the 'most qualified' firm for negotiation of a contract.

some members of the public and of the city council objected to allowing Firm A to alter its qualification proposal, alleging that in doing so it violated the intent of the governing procurement law
