This committee met on June 22, 1987 to agree on the procedure for evaluating the proposals and adopted one prepared for Mr. Robert T. Herrera (LPAWA General Manager) in May, 1987, (copy attached). During the ensuing week each of the committee members independently reviewed and evaluated the thirteen (13) proposals ( a total of 51 hours were spent during this period). The committee then met on June 29, 1987 to compile and review the results of the individual evaluations and to establish weighting factors for the three (3) principal categories used in the evaluation (2 1/2 hours in this meeting). The results of the combined evaluations are shown on Exhibits A, B, C and D, copies of which are attached. Exhibit A shows ratings by individual committee members, the average rating, the agreed weighting factor and the "Final Rating" for the category "Personnel Qualifications." r ,, . Page Two • Exhibit B shows the same items as Exhibit A for the category "Experience of Firm." Exhibit C shows the same items as Exhibit A for the category "Methodology." Exhibit D summarizes the "Final Ratings" from the other exhibits, totals them and ranks the thirteen (13) firms based on the total of the "Final Ratings." The ratings by the individuals which result in the ultimate "Total Ratings" are based on guidelines on pages A-6, A-7 and A-8 of the procedure previously adopted. The committee has not interviewed any of the firms who submitted proposals nor have they contacted any references. It is the feeling of the committee that it would be a waste of time to interview more than the top ranked (3 - 5) firms. Due to the caliber of these firms the committee feels no need to check references. Based on these evaluations, the committee submits the following summary and recommendations: A. The five (5) highest ranked firms (in order of ranking) are as follows: 1. Dannenbaum Engineering Corporation 2. Espey, Huston & Associates, Inc. 3. CRSS Sirrine ~. Turner, Collie & Braden 5. Black & Veatch B. That Black & Veatch not be considered further because they propose to provide these services from their Austin, Texas office. C. That the other four (4) top ranked firms be interviewed by the LPAWA Board or a committee appointed by that Board. D. That a committee of not more than three (3) members of the La Porte City Council be invited as observers at these interviews. E. That a final report from the committee (or the Board), with a final preference ranking, be the basis for initialing a firm contract proposal from the highest ranked firm. ` - • • Page Three The committee feels that the evaluations submitted are fair and impartial and certainly reflect the members combined and unanimous judgement. We will be happy to respond to questions from the Board regarding details of the proposals.
