Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 10, October 1, 2024

Section 734-010-0300 - Scoring Contractor Performance Evaluation

(1) Each evaluation will result in six numeric scores. Scores will be assessed for each of the five specific performance categories, as well as an overall score. The overall score is a total amount of all five of the category scores. The evaluation scoring shall be conducted as follows:

(a) If the duration of a contract is 12 months or less, the CPM will score the evaluation for the entire duration of the project, or

(b) If the duration of a contract is over 12 months, the CPM will score the evaluation for the preceding year within 30 days of the anniversary date of the Notice to Proceed. The scores shall reflect only that time period and will not be a cumulative score for the project duration. The final evaluation shall be prepared within 60 days of the date of Second Notification and will reflect only that time period between the latest annual evaluation and the date of Second Notification.

(2) After the evaluation score has been calculated, the CPM will send the evaluation score by email, facsimile or certified mail to the authorized contractor representative. Within 14 days of the date of verifiable receipt of the evaluation, the contractor's authorized representative may sign and return the evaluation to the ODOT CPM or schedule a meeting with the CPM to review the evaluation. Signature and return of the form represents the contractor's acceptance of the evaluation.

(3) At the Review or Mandatory meeting with the CPM, the consequences and corrective actions should be discussed, in an effort to improve contractor performance on future projects and prevent future scores from falling into Performance Level 2 or 3.

(a) If an authorized contractor representative refuses to sign the evaluation form within 14 days of verifiable receipt or within 7 days following the meeting with the CPM, the CPM will sign and date the evaluation, note in the contractor's signature area "did not respond," and transmit a copy to the SCME.

(b) Following a Review meeting with the CPM, the authorized contractor representative may sign the evaluation or request an Appeal meeting with the CAE. The request for an Appeal meeting must be made within 7 days after the Review meeting with the CPM.

(c) If the contractor does not sign the form following the Review meeting with the CPM and does not request an appeal meeting with the CAE within 7 days after the review meeting with the CPM, the score is final and no appeal to the CAE for that evaluation shall be available.

(4) ODOT's Construction Section will forward the final evaluation to the authorized contractor representative by email, facsimile or certified mail with verifiable receipt indicating the date score became final.
