Term Contract
The
DPMC may engage consultants for Term Contracts pursuant to the procedures
set forth in N.J.A.C. 17:19-5 for small and medium sized design and
construction projects. These procedures are similar to those of a major
selection in that the process is competitive and the most qualified
firms will be selected to submit fee proposals. The Term Contract shall
apply to a particular area of interest or expertise and/or geographical
location.
Expressions
of interest will be solicited from interested firms and Term Contracts
will be awarded to those prequalified firms deemed to meet the requirements
of the Term Contract. Contract awards will be made in a manner similar
to the major contract process. Firms will be evaluated and scored based
on the pre-established evaluation criteria and ranked, with a final
award being negotiated with the highest ranked firm(s) at a fair and
reasonable compensation as determined by the Selection Committee.
