WHAT OTHERS ASKED
66 questions answered
▶
Do resumes, reference forms and appendices count toward the RFP’s stipulated proposal page limit?
Compliance
▶
Exhibit 1 states that all materials prepared by the consultant become City property. Will the City accept a carve-out that lets the consultant keep its pre-existing tools, templates and methods, with a license granted to the City?
Award & contract
▶
As Exhibit 1’s limitation of liability language has no limitation-of-liability clause, will the City consider a mutual liability cap tied to the fees paid under the agreement?
Award & contract
▶
As Exhibit 1’s indemnity specifics covers consequential damages and has no cap, will the City consider limiting indemnification to claims caused by the consultant's negligence, and excluding consequential damages?
Award & contract
▶
The RFP’s evaluation criteria state that 15 points are based on the ability to work within the City's standard agreement. How will proposed changes to Exhibit 1 affect scoring under this criterion?
Preference · Award & contract
▶
The RFP’s cost proposal section asks proposers to identify travel costs, but Attachment A says transportation costs can't be billed. Is travel reimbursable when the City requests onsite work?
