Background
At its April 9, 1999 meeting, the Board approved a revised Procurement
Policy and Procedure. Under the revised policy, RFPs and RFQs for budgeted
items over $50,000, which follow the standard evaluation criteria, no longer
require individual Board approval. However, a monthly report of all RFPs and
RFQs over $50,000 is included as part of the Board agenda package and the
Board may, if desired, take individual action on any item. The report
provides the title and synopsis of the RFP or RFQ, the budgeted funds
available, the release date, the closing date, the type of evaluation
method, and the AQMD contact.
Outreach
In accordance with AQMD’s Procurement Policy and Procedure, a public
notice advertising the RFP/RFQ and inviting bids will be published in the
Los Angeles Times, the Orange County Register, the San Bernardino Sun, and
Riverside County Press Enterprise newspapers to leverage the most
cost-effective method of outreach to the entire South Coast Basin.
Additionally, potential bidders may be notified utilizing the Los Angeles
County MTA Directory of Certified Firms, the Inland Area Opportunity Pages
Ethnic/Women Business & Professional Directory; and AQMD’s own electronic
listing of certified minority vendors. Notice of the RFP/RFQ will be mailed
to the Black and Latino Legislative Caucuses and various minority chambers
of commerce and business associations, and placed on the Internet at AQMD’s
Web site (http://www.aqmd.gov where it can
be viewed by making menu selections “Inside AQMD”/“Employment and Business
Opportunities”/“Business Opportunities” or by going directly to
http://www.aqmd.gov/rfp/index.html). Information is also available on
AQMD’s bidder’s 24-hour telephone message line (909) 396-2724.
Proposal Evaluation
Proposals received will be evaluated by applicable diverse panels of
technically qualified individuals familiar with the subject matter of the
project or equipment and may include outside public sector or academic
community expertise.
