Review and Action by SBWMA to Select a Facility Operator for Shoreway The SBWMA established an Evaluation Committee to review and evaluate the proposals and a Selection Committee (made up of agency officials 1) to make a selection recommendation to the SBWMA Board. Several reports have been issued by these committees that detail the selection process and the final recommendation to the SBWMA Board. Reports and key decision points in this selection process ar.e as follows (note all reports are posted on the SBWMA website): · Facility operations RFP Issued; November 1, 2007 · Proposals received from seven proposers; March 4, 2008 · Proposer presentations; May 22, 2008 · Proposal summary report issued; June 19, 2008 · Evaluation and selection committee reports issued; July 17, 2008 · SBWMA Board vote to short list companies; July 24, 2008 · Evaluation and selection committee reports issued; January 15, 2009 · Evaluation and selection committee reports dated; March 18, 2009 88 Page 2 On July 24, 2008 the SBWMA Board approved a recommendation to short-list two firms - SBR and HBC. Since that time, additional information has been gathered and analyzed about these two proposers. In the March 18, 2009 report the SBWMA facility operator selection committee concluded that both short-listed firms are capable and qualified to operate the facility, however, SBR's proposal is substantially less expensive than HBC's (difference of $1.6 million dollars per year). The selection committee's final recommendation of SBR is largely based on the substantial savings to the SBWMA ratepayers provided by the company. The Selection Committee's final recommendation of SBR has been based on research, analysis, and evaluation conducted over a year-long process. In the evaluation process seven proposers were individually scored based on criteria established in RFP (please see Table 1). The scoring and evaluation considerations of the seven proposers were based on: · Original proposals · Interviews and responses to follow-up questions · Site visits Material Recovery Facility (MRF) sorting equipment considerations · Reference checks and information from other publicly available sources 1 Jim Porter, Public Works Director, County of San Mateo; Larry Patterson, Public Works Director, City of San Mateo; Mark Weiss, City Manager, City of San Carlos; and Hilary Gans, Facility Operations Contract Manager, SBWMA
