Offeror to submit their standard Billable Hourly rate for this type of training in the Cost Proposal, ATTACHMENT 4.

7. PROPOSAL REVIEW AND EVALUATION

7.1 The objective of the University in soliciting and evaluating proposals is to ensure the selection of a firm or individual that will produce the best possible results for the funds expended.

7.2 The proposal will be evaluated first as either “pass” or “fail,” based on compliance with Mandatory (M) and Mandatory/Evaluated (ME) requirements. All proposals that meet the Mandatory and Mandatory/Evaluated requirements will continue in the evaluation process. Proposals not meeting the Mandatory and Mandatory/Evaluated requirements may be found non-responsive.

LF14-057 Page 54 of 68 5/7/2023

7.3 The University will establish an evaluation team, who may consult with subject matter experts to review and advise on any portion of the response, to evaluate responses. Upon opening the responses, the Boise State University Purchasing Department will inspect the proposal for responsiveness. Under the facilitation of the Purchasing Department, the evaluation team will score the responsive proposals. The University may request online or other electronic style demonstrations from the top several scoring Offerors. If demonstrations are requested, the University may submit demonstration scenarios to Offerors. The team will discuss and finalize their scoring with the Purchasing Department. Prior to award, the apparent successful Offeror’s response may be forwarded to a representative(s) of the Office of Information Technology and/or General Counsel to confirm that the System will work within the University’s infrastructure and policies.

7.4 The criteria described below will be used to evaluate and score the proposals for the purpose of ranking them in relative position based on how fully each proposal meets the requirements of this RFP. Particular emphasis will be placed on the Offeror’s understanding of the RFP, quality of product/service, and the description of how the activities will be performed.

7.5 The scores for each category named in the Evaluation Criteria (Section 7.10), except references, will be normalized. Excepting cost, the proposal with the highest raw score per category will receive all available points for the category. Other proposals will be assigned a portion of the maximum available points, using the formula:

(Raw score of proposal being evaluated / highest raw score) x Total possible category points.

7.6 The Cost evaluation will be based on: Total Cost as listed by Offeror in the Cost Proposal, ATTACHMENT 4.

The cost evaluation will be based on the total cost proposed for required services as itemized in Attachment 4, “Cost Proposal.” The scores for the Cost Proposal will be normalized as follows: The proposal with the lowest overall total cost proposed will receive all the cost points as assigned in the Evaluation Criteria below. Other proposals will be assigned a portion of the maximum score using the formula:

Lowest Cost / other proposal cost x total possible cost points.

7.7 The cost points will be added to the rest of the evaluation points and proposals will be ranked by final total score. The number of total points for each Proposal will be determined by adding the normalized score for the “Business and Scope of Work Proposal” to the normalized score for the “Cost Proposal”.

7.8 Award will be made to the responsive, responsible Offeror whose Proposal receives the

highest number of total normalized points, including points for demonstrations, if demos are elected to be required by the University.

7.5 At the discretion of the University, demonstrations may be required. 7.6 Demonstrations, if required, will be conducted before the Notice of Intent to Award is

issued. Demonstrations will be required to be in-person, at Boise State University, set

LF14-057 Page 55 of 68 5/7/2023

up by the Offeror and provided at no cost to the University. It is possible that an Offeror will have only one week’s notice that they have been selected for a demonstration, so it is suggested that the Offeror have the ability to quickly set up a demonstration and be prepared to exhibit their product.

Demonstrations may include hypothetical scenarios, real life test samples, quality assurance issues, reporting and/or anything else the University is specifically interested in seeing or hearing about. The demonstration becomes an official part of the response. At its discretion, the University will choose either “Evaluated” or “Pass/Fail” demonstrations, as detailed below.

7.6.1 (E) Evaluated Demonstrations - At the discretion of the University, several of the highest scoring Offerors may be contacted to give an overview/demonstration of their System and respond to questions. Evaluated Demonstrations will be scored and normalized and added with the rest of the points to get an overall score for the Offerors from whom a demonstration was requested. Results of the demonstrations may result in adjustment of points awarded in the Business and Scope of Work Proposal, as the evaluation committee deems appropriate. Failure to successfully demonstrate functions of the System listed as mandatory in this RFP may result in rejection of the Offeror’s proposal.

7.6.2 (E) Pass/Fail Demonstration - Alternatively, the University reserves the right to require an in-person demonstration or web conference of only the top scoring Offeror. If this option is chosen, the evaluation is strictly Pass/Fail for the apparent successful Offeror. If the apparent successful Offeror fails, then the next highest scoring Offeror will be considered the apparent successful Offeror and the demonstration process may be repeated.

7.6.3 For those proposals making it to the demonstrations, the total evaluation points will be summed with the cost points and demonstration points (if requested) and the proposals will be ranked by final total score.

7.9 Offeror will be notified of the result of the solicitation process in writing. Written notification will be sent to the authorized signer designated on the signature page.
