Summit Pointe welcomes our community partners to competitively bid on contractual opportunities (RFP/Q) as they become available. We are seeking ethical providers of goods and services whose values align with our mission and whose businesses are compliant with relevant local, state, and federal requirements.
We encourage potential partners to review the posted opportunities and submit the requested information along with a proposal/quote before the stated deadline. Once the bidding is closed, the submitted, sealed bids are opened by Summit Pointe’s internal review panel. Evaluation for the award is typically based on the quotation that best meets price, quality, expertise, past performance, flexibility, and reliability, based on the criteria stipulated in the bid documents. Although Summit Pointe seeks value, price is not the primary evaluation factor but it is considered. After the selection of a provider, a contract will be negotiated.
FAQs:
RFP vs RFQ
- Much of the information outlined in the RFP online references Construction Management, but it is requesting a proposal submission. Are you looking for a CM model contract, or a lump sum GC contract, or is there a desire or option for a CM contract with a Not to Exceed program budget?
The project is a CM contract with a proposed budget.
- The RFP, as well as the email below, is asking for a proposal.
- No format or breakdown can be found in the materials found online or in the attached study.
- Will a breakdown or format be issued so we can be sure to submit as directed?
- The study attached is a program outline with scope narratives, which is done well, so we have no questions on that.
- What is the expectation of our proposal, a lump sum value, a proposed budget, CM fee, and do you want preconstruction and general conditions separated?
Summit Pointe is expecting back up based on original request. All services should be included.
