STANDARD FORM CONTRACT This is a standard form contract that is designed to efficiently contract for and administer 2 types of program projects: 1) program projects which include the same basic work elements (design; construction: constmction administration by local agency; right-of-way: utilities; etc.); and also, 2) program projects with specific differences in those basic work elements (e.g., a specific project may include design but no construction, or it may include design and construction but the State will do the construction administration, etc.) The form contract accommodates both types of projects by using qualifying language to condition the appli_c_atip_n_, o_~_p_a_rt_ic_u_lar~con~ract._r~e_qoirements~ased_o_n___w__h_e_th_e_r_specific work elements are included in the project. For instance, where the contract provides ... "If the Work includes engineenng/design services, the Local Agency shall perform the following requirements ...", the Local Agency need perform those requirements only if engineering/design services are expressly included in the project, as defined in the Scope of Work. ?Conversely, notwithstanding that language is in the contract, the Local Agency can ignore those "requirements" if engineering/design services are NOT expressly included in the Scope of Work.) The Local Agency shall interpret such qualifying language in that manner. By using such language, the form contract can apply to both the general and the specific types of projects, thus making it easier to administer and saving the State and the Local Agency time and expense. 1I. PROJECT DESCRIPTION "The project" or "the Work" under this contract shall consist of constmcting pavement on Cemetary Lane Trail to reduce the PM-10 emissions, in Aspen, Colorado. as more specifically described in Exhibit A, attached hereto and made a part hereof (the Form #463 and/or a "Scope of Work") as it may be revised by the parties in the design review process before the project work is actually started.

Therefore. local agencies must comply with this CFR requirement and the following state procedures when obtaining professional consultant services under a federally landed consultant contract administered by CDOT. CDOT has formulated its procedures in Procedural Directive (P.D.) 400.1 and the related operations guidebook titled "Obtaining Professional Consultant Services". This directive and guidebook incorporate requirements from both Federal and State regulations, i.e., 23 CFR 172 and Colorado Revised Statute (C.R.S.) 24-30-1401 et seq. Copies of the directive and the guidebook may be obtained upon request from CDOT's Agreements and Consultant Management Unit. [Local agencies should have their own written procedures on file for each method of procurement that addresses the items in 23 CFR 172.5(b)(1-6)]. Because the procedures and laws described in the Procedural Directive and the guidebook are quite lengthy, the subsequent steps serve as a short-hand guide m CDOT procedures that a local agency must follow in obtaining professional consultant services. This guidance follows the format of 23 CFR 172 The steps are: 1 .~l-~h~contrae fing-toeal-agene~sh ali~loe ument-the-ne e&f-or~ob~a '~ffmg~pr ofessio rval- serv/~e es: 2. Prior to solicitation for consultant services, the contracting local agency shall develop a detailed scope of work and a list of evaluation factors and their relative importance. The evaluation factors are those identified in C.R.S. 24-30-1403. Also. a detailed cost estimate should be prepared for use during negotiations. 3. The contracting agency must advertise for contracts in conformity with the requirements of C.R.S. 24-30-1405. The public notice period, when such notice is required, is a minimum of 15 days prior to the selection of the three most qualified firms and the advertising should be done in one or more daily newspapers of general circulation. 4. The request for consultant services should include the scope of work. the evaluation factors and their relative importance, the method of payment, and the goal of ten percent (10%) Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) participation as a minimum for the project. 5. The analysis and selection of the consultants should be done in accordance with C,R.S. 24-30-1403. This section of the regulation identifies the criteria to be used in the evaluation of CDOT pre-qualified prime consultants and their team, It also shows which criteria are used to short-list and to make a final selection The short-list is based on the following evaluation factors: a. Qualifications. b. Approach to the project, c. Ability to furnish professional services d. Anticipated design concepts, and e. Alternative methods of approach for furnishing the professional services. Evaluation factors for final selection are the consultant's: a. Abilities of their personnel, b. Past performance. c. Willingness to meet the time and budget requirement, d. Location. e, Current and projected work load, Attachment gl -Page 1 of 2 f. Volume of previously awarded contracts, and g. Involvement of minority consultants. Under 24-30-1401~ cost shall not be considered as a factor in the evaluation of professional consultant services. 6, Once a consultant is selected, the local agency enters into negotiations with the consultant to obtain a fair and reasonable price for the anticipated work. Pre-negotiation audits are prepared for contracts expected to be greater than $50,000. Federal reimbursement for costs are limited to those costs allowable under the cost principles of 48 CFR 3 I. Fixed fees (profit) are determined with consideration given m size, complexity, duration, and degree of risk involved in the work. Profit is in the range of six (6) to fifteen (15) percent of the total direct and indirect COSTS. 7. A qualified local agency employee shall be responsible and in charge of the project to ensure that the work being pursued is complete, accurate, and consistent with the terms, conditions, and specifications of the contract. At the end of project, the local agency prepares a performance evaluation (a CDOT form is availableJ on the consultant. 8. Each ~f the steps listed above is to be documented in accordance with the provisions of 49 CFR 18.42, which provide for records to be kept at least three (3) years from the date that the local agenc~ submits its final expenditure report, Records of projects under litigation shall be kept at least three (3) years after the case has been settled.
