Section 1.4.1.38 - EVALUATION OF PROPOSALS

A. Evaluation factors: The evaluation shall be based on the evaluation factors and the relative weights set forth in the RFP. Appropriate rating systems (numerical, point-based, pass/fail, etc.) are required for requests for proposals-based procurements.

B. Evaluation committee: The state agency management shall appoint an evaluation committee prior to the due date for receipt of proposals. The size of the committee should be manageable and include both user and technical support representatives. Contractor subject matter experts may be used to advise the committee but cannot evaluate proposals.

C. Classified proposals: For the purpose of conducting discussions under 1.4.1.39 NMAC of this rule, proposals shall be initially classified as:

(1) responsive;

(2) potentially responsive, that is, reasonably susceptible of being made responsive; or

(3) non-responsive.

D. Disqualification: Non-responsive proposals are disqualified and eliminated from further consideration. A written determination in the form of a letter shall be sent to the disqualified offeror setting forth the grounds for the disqualification, and made a part of procurement file.
