We are requesting public records for the contract - Bid #031.24.B6 Flexible Staffing Services
Please send us the following details:
1. Technical & Cost Proposals of all the awarded (Incumbent) vendors
2. Bid tabulation/scoring sheet of the award
3. Yearly spend of awarded vendor and total budget of the contract
Responsive to this request, details regarding the contract award can be found in this Bids and Contracts report from March 7, 2024 (see PC-75): https://go.boarddocs.com/mabe/hcpssmd/Board.nsf/files/D2WJE24CC1C4/$file/03%2007%2024%20Bids%20and%20Contracts.pdf and with the actual contracts and original RFP terms on this website: https://hcpss.bonfirehub.com/portal/?tab=publicContracts.
Under MPIA GP § 4-344, which allows a custodian to deny inspection of confidential opinions, deliberations, advice or recommendations from one governmental employee or official to another for the purpose of assisting the latter in the decision-making function, we would be unable to release the evaluation committee’s score/evaluation records. These records reveal pre-decisional recommendations of the evaluation committee used to inform the award by the Purchasing Office, where release would be contrary to the public interest given its potential to inhibit full and frank discussion in the procurement process.
Additional time would be needed to complete review of cost and technical proposals for each awarded vendor. Requester withdrew request.
