Description

The Town of Natick issued a procurement for document management consulting services but subsequently cancelled the procurement due to a miscommunication regarding the evaluation of qualitative non-price elements. The Town determined that an RFP process would better serve the public interest by allowing consideration of consultants' past contract experience, public project experience, and references. The procurement will be re-issued as a re-advertised request for proposals to ensure proper evaluation and to avoid confusion caused by wide bid deviations and hourly bids.
