Turf Maintenance Services on an as needed basis. Metropolitan Nashville Public Schools (MNPS) is seeking proposals from multiple qualified and experienced Contractors for the provision of Electrical Services and related projects on an as needed basis. Whenever MNPS has a project that fits this scope MNPS will send out the plans/specs/requirements of that project to the awarded Contractors (all) for bids. At that time, MNPS will award the work to the lowest responsive and responsible bid. Pursuant to Metropolitan Nashville Public Schools ("MNPS") Policies and Procedures 2.806.2p, this solicitation document serves as the written determination of the Director of Procurement that the use of competitive sealed bidding is not practical and it is in the best interests of MNPS to use the Request for Proposal approach. The proposal selection method permits (but does not require) discussions with the offerors of a proposal to clarify and understand the offer. Modifications in proposal content, comparative judgmental evaluations of the proposal, corrections, and scope adjustments, may occur at the request of the Director of Procurement or their designee. The Director of Procurement has appointed an Evaluation Committee to evaluate offers and reach a consensus score. The committee may include subject matter experts, requesting department end users, project managers, and consultants. Procurement staff (a non-voting member) facilities the committee's discussions, scoring process, and award recommendation. The Procurement Staff is the only acceptable point of contact during the solicitation and contract award process unless otherwise stated. There may be one of more amendments to this solicitation. Solicitation amendments are included as updates to the original solicitation. It is the Offeror's responsibility to remain informed on all solicitation amendments and submit the solicitation response incorporating all amendments. Offers to MNPS online solicitations are required to be submitted within the iSupplier online environment unless otherwise stated. Hard copy offers will not be considered except as required by law. Any response to this solicitation is a formal waiver of any claims of confidentiality regardless of what may be stated, printed, or implied in the submission and/or attachments submitted. All information becomes Public Record after an award is made. The only official position of MNPS is found within this solicitation document including answers provided in response to questions raised. The online discussion tool within iSupplier is the appropriate tool for all questions or communications concerning this solicitation. MNPS reserves the right to issue additional rounds, to all potential Offerors and/or shortlisted Offerors, as it deems necessary for the purposes of evaluation. Additional rounds may include, but not be limited to, Offeror interviews. Whenever MNPS has a project that fits this scope MNPS will send out the plans/specs/requirements of that project to the awarded Contractors (all) for bids. At that time, MNPS will award the work to the lowest responsive and responsible bid.
