500) Request For Proposal - RFP 04-21 HQ for Audit Services
Finance Director Holly Queen gave a presentation reviewing the purpose of the committee,
the proposed evaluation criteria, scoring methodology, tentative procurement schedule, and
shared the previously used Request for Proposal (RFP) as the baseline for the one that will be
posted for this year.
The evaluation criteria that was utilized in the pervious RFP was shared showing the scoring
stretched across four categories due to Florida Statue calling out that price cannot be a high
determining factor when awarding a bid. An adjectival scoring methodology of zero to four (0-
4) was also confirmed for use in evaluating proposals. The Committee member's adjectival
rating score is multiplied by the percentage of maximum points (weight) resulting in a total
score for that section with the Finance Department responsible for calculating and entering
price scores on behalf of committee members.
The committee discussed and confirmed availability for a proposal evaluation meeting
scheduled for Tuesday, July 14, 2026, from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM, at City Hall. The determination
of whether formal firm presentations/interviews would be conducted was deferred until the
responses were received. Committee Member Withee, who served on the prior 2021
committee, noted that interviews had proven valuable during the selection process and letthe
applicants relayed experience and responsiveness not readily apparent from written
submissions alone. The proposed procurement schedule was reviewed for the Committee.
Finance Director Queen confirmed that the RFP document would be updated with current
dates, personnel references, budget figures, standard city terms and conditions, and receive
legal review prior to posting. The committee expressed confidence in the document and
Finance Director Queen confirmed the committee would receive the updated RFP once
corrected for reference.
THE COMMITTEE CAVE CONSENSUS TO ADOPT THE PROPOSED RFP WITH THE
NECESSARY CLERICAL FIXES. VOTE: MCCANN (AYE); WITHEE (AYE); SANTORO (AYE)
