This document is a request to bid, specifically for noise-producing equipment. It includes a sample formula for determining the evaluated bid price for such equipment. The document provides a table with four bidders and their respective bid prices and noise levels. The actual bid prices range from $40,000 to $42,100, while the noise levels range from 74 to 79.
To determine the evaluated bid price, the document suggests adding the total of the actual bid prices and dividing it by the number of bidders. In this case, the total is $163,800, and since there are four bidders, the average bid price is $40,950.
The document then states that for each decibel of sound below the maximum offered, a deduction of $409.50 should be made from the actual bid price to determine the evaluated bid price. The bidder with the highest noise level would be evaluated at their actual bid price, while the other bidders would have deductions based on their noise levels compared to the maximum offered.
In the sample case provided, Bidder "A" has the highest noise level and would be evaluated at their actual bid price of $41,200. Bidder "B" has a 1-dBA rating below the maximum offered, resulting in a deduction of $409.50 from their actual bid price. Bidder "C" has a 3-dBA rating below the maximum offered, resulting in a deduction of $1,228.50 from their actual bid price. Bidder "D" has a 5-dBA rating below the maximum offered, resulting in a deduction of $2,047.50 from their actual bid price.
Based on this evaluation, the contract could be awarded to Bidder "C" at their evaluated bid price of $39,971.50 for providing a product that is 3 decibels below the maximum offered.
