Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC) intends to retain an individual consulting firm or joint venture to provide the professional services for the project as set out in this Request for Proposal (RFP). 2. This is a selection process utilizing a Qualification Based Selection (QBS) methodology for the acquisition of Architectural and Engineering Services. The process is structured as follows: Stage One: Technical Evaluation One Phase Evaluation Stage Two: Project Review and Discussion Step I Refine Requirements Step II Price Proposal 3. Stage One is a single phase selection process. The nature of the requirement and the anticipated limited number of response by the industry leads PWGSC to believe that this approach will not unduly force a large number of firms to expend an overall unreasonable amount of effort in response to PWGSC. 4. Proponents responding to this RFP are requested to submit a full and complete Technical Proposal in response to Stage One, exclusive of cost, to cover not only the qualifications, experience and organization of the proposed Consultant Team, but also the detailed approach to the work, and the terms offered. Following evaluation and rating of the Technical Proposals, the Highest Ranked Technical Proponent (HRTP) is determined and remaining proponents are advised of their competitive standing. Debriefs will not be conducted until a contract is awarded. 5. HRTP may then be invited to proceed to Stage Two, Step I, to refine requirements and to Step II, to submit a Price Proposal. At Step II, the HRTP is expected to fully substantiate its Price Proposal. A combination of the Technical Proposal, the Record of Discussion and Price Proposal constitutes the final proposal. 3 | Page Alexandra Bridge Boardwalk Grating Replacement & Articulations Retrofit RFP REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL SI2 PROPOSAL DOCUMENTS 1.
