Elizabeth McBride, Deputy City Manager , 561-844-3408 Procurement staff recommends the Board approve Resolution 2023-08, rejecting all SOQ submittals due Section 2.9 – Financial Capacity requirements may have been ambiguous or vague, leading to non-uniform responses from the Respondents. See Exhibit 1. Conduct of the Evaluation Committee members, initiating the evaluation session, with a motion to disqualify a Respondent, Woda Cooper, leading to a second and the committee voting to disqualify the Respondent; and, the committee member further stating all the other Respondents met the requirements. However, a subsequent review of the financial documents by the Procurement staff demonstrated another Respondent had not provided the required documents. See Exhibit 1. Due to above reasons, the Procurement Staff recommends that it would be in the best interests of the CRA to reject all responses and allow Procurement to re- solicit this project. Cover Page
