For a request for proposal, the Proposal or Proposals that are determined in writing to be the most advantageous to District based on the requirements of the Solicitation and evaluation factors set forth in the Special Requirements of Solicitation.

A multiple Award shall be made only if the District Representative determines in writing, prior to making an award that a multiple Award is necessary and is advantageous to District. In determining whether to award multiple contracts, District will assess whether multiple vendors are necessary and advantageous to ensure the availability of goods or services that fully conform to District's requirements at the time, place and manner needed by District. If District determines that multiple contracts are necessary and advantageous, District will determine the least number of Contractors that are needed and award Contracts to, if an invitation to bid, the Bidders who submitted the lowest responsible and responsive Bids; and, if a request for proposal, the Offerors who submitted the most advantageous Proposals to District. When determining whether to award of multiple contracts, District may consider a variety of factors, including without limitation: District's experience with existing products and systems, brand continuity for parts replacement, increased demand for goods or services, a single Contractor's ability to provide for District's needs, bonding capacity, Contractor's location and service areas, District's past experience with Contracts for similar product/services, and other relevant criteria, including the criteria set forth in school district procurement code R7-2-1024(B)(1)(D): whether contracts will be awarded by individual line items or groups of line items, by increments, or by designated regions or locations. Formation of Contract. A response to the Solicitation is an offer to contract with District based upon the terms, conditions, scope of work/services, and specifications contained in the Solicitation. An Offer does not become a contract unless and until District accepts it. A contract is formed when the District Representative signs the Award document on behalf of District. No work may commence or products be delivered until District has issued a Purchase Order to Contractor. The project timeline requires the project shall be substantially complete within a total of 270 days from notice to proceed.
