Preparation of INTERGRAPH Microstation and AutoCAD compatible computer drawing data on magnetic media and computer-automated specifications (SPECSINTACT) are required. SELECTION CRITERIA: Prioritized selection criteria in descending order of importance are: (1) Past performance on recent projects. Provide a listing of all projects within the last five years for which design has been completed and bid, and for which construction costs total a minimum of $1,000,000. The listing for each project shall include the title of the project, a description of the project, the total design costs for the project, a comparison of the A/E construction estimate and the project award value (include a discussion of the circumstances of significant differences), and an accessible owner point of contact (with phone number). Identify which projects on this list were prepared as Design/Build Request for Proposal packages. Provide copies of performance evaluations received within the last 3 years. (2) Professional qualifications of the staff to be assigned to this project, including sub-consultants and Quality Control personnel. In Block 4 of the SF-255 (Personnel by Discipline) show the entire proposed team by listing personnel employed by the prime in the blanks provided, and personnel from consultants to the left in parentheses. Provide a list of key team members who will actually perform the major tasks (including quality control) under each of these projects.

Indicate the firm's present workload and the availability of the project team, including consultants, for the specified contract period. Demonstrate how the prime contractor will manage and coordinate the work of its staff and of its sub-consultants.
