|Executive Summary: |This replaces contract 02107 which will expire once 06013 is awarded. Previous contract was divided into three |

| |regions. Replacement contract 06013 is divided into six regions to allow more companies to participate. |

|[pic] | |

| |This is a two-tier contract. The first tier (“Tier One”) includes a Rapid Selection List of vendors, which Purchasers |

| |can select if they expect their purchase to be equal to or less than $10,000. Vendors in Tier One are sorted by |

| |regions where services are to be provided. Vendors are ranked by not-to-exceed price submitted during Tier One |

| |competition. |

| | |

| |The second tier (“Tier Two”) must be selected by a Purchaser when the expected cost is greater than $10,000. |

| |Purchasers may but are not required to select Tier Two in all other circumstances, including if the Purchaser wishes |

| |to solicit further competition by price and/or expertise. |

| | |

| |This process also includes the newly implemented “Open Enrollment” opportunity. This gives additional interested |

| |bidders a future opportunity, along with those who have submitted unsuccessful responses this time, the opportunity to|

| |reapply from January through September of the calendar year. |

|Bid Development |

|Stakeholder work |Provided specifications of previous contract to prime users DSHS, ESD and WSDOT for review, comments and updates. |

|Customer Forum? | |

|Vendor Forum? | |

|Supplier Diversity Strategy: |Emailed six MWBEs (OMWBE's certification directory) to inform them of upcoming solicitation for Security Guard |

| |Services, commodity code 990-46. Recommended to check their WEBS profile/account to ensure they selected the correct |

| |commodity code in order to ensure they'll receive notification. Provided WEBS link for vendors that may not yet be |

| |registered in order to do so. |

| | |

| |Certification language provided “Up Front”, section 1.10 – 1.12 in solicitation. |

| | |

| |Review of bid notification log revealed that three of the contractors on current contract 02107 were not notified. |

| |Their WEBS profile/account lists commodity code 990-10 for armored car services but not commodity code 990-46 for |

| |guard security services. Emailed the three vendors to let them know that the solicitation was released and to access |

| |and download the RFQQ from our website. Recommended to update their profile to include cc 990-46 to ensure they will |

| |receive notification of future security guard services opportunities. |

| |Through Open Enrollment Northwest Protective Service submitted pricing for Eastern Region they had inadvertently |

| |omitted on their original submittal. |

| |Through Open Enrollment Veteran Owned Chandler Security, LLC was added to existing contract. Participation/sales for |

|Quarter 1, 2014 |contract services rendered will be available based on customer usage and quarterly sales reports. |

| |Through Open Enrollment Minority Owned Liberty Security LLC was added to existing contract. Participation/sales for |

| |contract services rendered will be available based on customer usage and quarterly sales reports. |

| |(along with two others, see below). |

| | |

| |See attached Bidder Responsiveness Checklist |

|Bid Evaluation—Responsibility and Price Analysis |

|Non-Cost factors Evaluation |Responsive submittals were scored by the stakeholder committee on a |

| |Pass/fail basis for “Mandatory Service Requirements”. |

|[pic] |Performance Service Requirements (100 Points) |

| |Company Profile (25 available points) |

|[pic] |Incident Response and Protocol (20 available points) |

| |Customer Service (30 available points) |

| |Staff Requirements (25 available points) |

| |Northwest Protective submittal included pricing for the Eastern Region that was omitted on their original submittal. |

| |The original submittals non-cost factors were previously evaluated by the committee. Unit manager agreed with that |

| |decision. |

| |Cliff Roberts (DSHS) one of the three original evaluators moved on to another entity which left Mary O’Brien (DSHS) and|

| |Steve Fry (Ecology) to score the two submittals received during open enrollment in Quarter 2, 2014. |

| |Scoring of submittal received in Quarter 3, 2014 was very close. Therefore recruited a third independent evaluation by|

| |Chris Fox (LNI). |

|Price Sheet |Pricing for the services provided is determined by the customer(s) and the contractor during the second tier process, |

|Including Original and Open Enrollment |but is based on the “not to exceed” hourly blended rate submitted with the RFQQ. |

|Q1, Q2 & Q3, 2014 |Cost Evaluation: |

|(not to exceed pricing) |The cost evaluation will be conducted by the Procurement Coordinator, who will score and rank the Bidders in order of |

| |pricing submitted (lowest cost to highest) for placement in the Rapid Selection Vendor Pool. Price scoring will be |

| |subjected to preferences and penalties required by law, rule, or the solicitation. Scoring will begin with 50 points |

|[pic] |for the lowest cost submittal, with subsequent submittals receiving points proportionate to the percentage of increase |

| |in price when compared to the lowest cost submitted. |

| | |

| | |

| |Bid submittals during the Open Enrollment periods will not be added to the Rapid Selection as pricing is posted. |

| | |

| |Tier Two Traditional Process Evaluation |

| |Proposer’s whose scores are less than 25 percent of the ‘Not-To-Exceed Blended Hourly Rate” scores and rate above the |

| |top 75 percent of the “Performance Qualification Requirements” will be offered a Master Contract to be utilized in |

| |accordance with the Tier Two Traditional Competitive Process. |
