RE: Interviews for Prosecution Legal Services
The Council is not expected to make a proposal selection at this meeting as this has been
scheduled for the Tuesday, November 15, 2022
The following is an excerpt of the review process adopted by the City Council and included
within the Prosecution Services RFP:
“II. Review Process
A. Proposals will be compiled for review by the City Council. The City Council will evaluate
each proposal received based on the criteria identified in the following section. At the City
Council’s sole discretion, it may select a proposal to award a contract and appoint the
contractor as City Prosecutor.
B. Evaluation of all proposals shall be based upon the qualifications of the proposer to
perform the work, proposed rates, experience and other factors. A proposal that obtains a
low price but does not include other necessary qualities and features as specified in this RFP
does not meet the Best Value criterion. Factors upon which the proposals will be judged
include, but are not limited to, the following:
1. Vendor’s industry experience and previous experience in performing similar work,
particularly with public sector entities and public employers in the state of Minnesota;
2. Thoroughness, quality, specificity, robustness, flexibility of Vendor’s approach/
methodology, including the approach to accounting for both public input;
3. Cost estimate;
4. Vendor’s past performance and client references.”
This review process adopts the best value criterion but is less structured than the previous
RFP process for planning services. The Council maintains full discretion in its
determination, but it may consider attributing a score to each category as a means to
compare proposals.
