Process in awarding contract Sample Clauses

Process in awarding contract. Following an initial strategic evaluation of binding bids, in December 2008 all three consortia were invited to participate in a two stage Request for Response process to clarify / confirm aspects of each bid. This was followed by a detailed evaluation process. All processes were oversighted by the Project’s Probity Auditor and conducted in accordance with the evaluation methodology. On 20 April 2009 following a contract finalisation process, the State announced the selection of Aspire Schools as the successful proponent. The Minister for Education and Training signed the Project Deed. Financial Close occurred on 29 May 2009. The evaluation and contract finalisation processes were conducted in accordance with the Queensland Government’s Public Private Partnership policy – achieving value for money in public infrastructure and service delivery. In February 2008 the Department of Education and Training issued an Invitation for Expressions of Interest (EOI) for the SEQ Schools PPP Project. Six consortia responded to the EOI and four consortia were shortlisted and invited to submit binding bids. One consortium withdrew prior to submitting a binding bid. Binding Bids were required by 7 November 2008. The binding bids received were subjected to extensive evaluation against three broad categories – technical; legal and procurement; and, financial and commercial, and for value for money against the State’s Public Sector Comparator1. The Project Evaluation Committee was assisted by MBM (Technical advice), Freehills (legal advice) and ▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇ (financial advice) and was under the oversight of the Project Steering Committee and the Probity Auditor (BDO Kendalls). Further specialist advice was provided with respect to the SDM by QTC. 1. Public sector comparator is the estimated cost of delivering the project using traditional procurement and is used as the test for demonstrating Value for Money.
