City of Santa Ana Proposal to Provide Solid Waste Consulting Services <br />RFP NO.: 18-006 <br />Subtaslc 4B: Evaluate Complete Proposals <br />The specific criteria for which we evaluate the complete proposals will be developed using input <br />received from City staff and the City Council. Based on our experience in other cities, we <br />anticipate evaluating the proposals based on the following criteria: <br />• Exceptions taken to the terms and conditions of the draft agreements; <br />• Proposed total compensation (rate revenue), based on the rates included in the financial <br />section of the proposal; <br />• Experience of the proposers in providing the requested services In other jurisdictions, based <br />on information contained in their proposals; <br />• Financial resources of the proposers, based on information contained in their proposals; <br />and, <br />• Unique proposal features that exceed the RFP's minimum requirements. <br />Subtask 4C: Evaluate Proposed Rates and Operating Assumptions, Perform Fiscal and Rate <br />Analysis <br />We will evaluate the proposed rates and rate revenue, supporting costs, number of route hours, <br />diversion plans and other submitted operating assumptions for reasonableness. We will review <br />each proposers' fiscal stability based on key financial ratlos, ability to provide required insurance <br />and performance sureties, and the financial impact of the growth necessary to assume servicing <br />these contracts. <br />We will present the overall impact of the proposed rate revenue on the City and its rate payers, <br />as well as noting the impact to rate payers at common service levels. It is important not to focus <br />on just a few low rate categories, without determining whether other customers will be similarly <br />impacted. <br />Subtask 4D: Prepare Follow -Up Questions for Proposers <br />After performing our initial review and evaluation, we will provide each proposer with our <br />summary evaluation of the company's individual proposal in order to confirm our understanding <br />of the information presented in the proposal. <br />Subtask 4E: Review Responses and Clarify Unresolved Issues <br />We will review responses received from proposers and resolve any open issues to help ensure <br />that proposers are satisfied with the representation of their proposals. <br />Subtask 4F: Interview Proposers <br />At this stage in the process, usually one, two, or three proposals are more likely to be selected. <br />Along with the City's evaluation team, we will interview up to three proposers, scheduling all <br />interviews on one day. <br />April 4, 2018 Page 15 HF&H Consultants, LLC <br />
