The document is a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for a consulting firm to prepare a Rates and Fees Report for the City of Deltona in Florida. The document outlines the tasks, meetings, deliverables, and evaluation process for selecting the qualified firm.
Task 2 of the RFQ requires the firm to prepare a draft report summarizing the rates and fees for the appropriate category, the methodologies used, and the assumptions and cost factors. The report should include an executive summary, an overview of rate-setting methods in Florida, a comparison of rates with other government entities, a detailed schedule of proposed rates and fees, and other information justifying the recommended rate and fee schedule.
Task 3 involves participating in several meetings, including an initial kick-off meeting, information gathering meeting, 70% completion meeting, one reserved meeting, and two public meetings for first and second readings.
Task 4 specifies the deliverables, which include six copies of the draft final report for staff review and ten copies of the final report for implementation.
The RFQ submission and format requirements are also provided, including a title page, table of contents, letter of transmittal, profile of the proposer, summary of proposer's qualifications, and approach to the project.
The evaluation and selection process will follow Florida Statute 287.055 and will consider the completeness and compliance of the submittals, meeting the minimum requirements, qualifications of personnel, past experience with governing municipalities in Florida, location of the primary office, and approach to the project. The City may conduct oral interviews or presentations if necessary.
The document concludes with the recommendation and approval process, where the City will rank the submittals and make a final recommendation to the City Manager. If the top-ranked firm's proposal exceeds $25,000, the City Manager will make a recommendation to the City Commission for a final decision. The selection will be based on the respondent that best meets the qualifications and needs of the City for the scope of the project, with a focus on the highest qualifications and needs of the city as it pertains to the requirements of the scope of work.
