Evaluation and Award

Proposals will be initially reviewed by a panel appointed by the Plumas County Sheriff’s Office

administration to verify that each proposal meets all of the minimum, mandatory, and administrative

requirements. Those proposals not meeting the minimum, mandatory, and administrative requirements

may be deemed non-responsive and given no further consideration. Those remaining after the initial

review will then be reviewed by the panel for in-depth evaluation as set forth in the Request for

Proposal. Evaluations of the proposals will be made by the panel, which will note any exceptions and

record each proposal’s scores based on the established criteria. Scores shall be summarized and

recorded when the evaluations have been completed.

The evaluation criteria will not be based solely on lowest cost, although cost will be a significant

consideration. The review panel will also consider the following additional factors:

1. Experience consistent with the standard of care, diligence and skill ordinarily exercised

by professionals in this field.

2. Familiarity with Title 15 of the California Code of Regulations(i.e., correctional health

regulations) and all laws that may affect the contractor’s performance.

3. Demonstrated ability to work with inmates.

4. Demonstrated ability to work in an unfriendly environment.

5. Demonstrated ability to work within the confines of a correctional facility.

6. Reputation, financial resources, and past performance history.

Discussions and/or interviews may be conducted with responding contractors who have submitted

proposals determined to be reasonably susceptible of being selected for award. The evaluation panel

may re-evaluate the proposals and revise proposal scores after these discussions and/or interviews. The

evaluation panel shall then make a written award recommendation to the Plumas County Sheriff based

on its final proposal scores. The Plumas County Sheriff shall then make the final selection, subject to the

approval of the Plumas County Board of Supervisors. The Plumas County Sheriff’s Office shall notify in

writing all parties that submitted proposals of the award recommendation and the proposed award

date.

The winning contractor will be required to execute a contract on the Plumas County standard form

contract. A copy of the contract is available on request from the Plumas County Sheriff’s Office.
