format of these presentations3 demonstrations3 and intervie4s ma- var- from one offeror to the ne:t3
dependin/ on the particular issues or concerns the State ma- have 4ith each offeror7s Proposal.
The State normall- 4ill not ran. intervie4s3 demonstrations3 and presentations. Rather3 if the State
conducts the intervie4s3 demonstrations3 or presentations as part of the technical evaluation3 the State

1f the State holds the demonstrations3 presentations3 or intervie4s onl- for one or more of the top(ran.in/
offerors after the evaluation phase3 the State ma- decide to revise its e:istin/ Proposal evaluations ,ased
on the results of this process.
The offeror7s oral presentation3 site visit3 and>or demonstration must su,stantiall- represent material
included in the 4ritten proposal3 and should not introduce ne4 concepts or offers unless specificall-
requested ,- the State. The .e- personnel identified in the offeror7s proposal must participate in an- and
all oral presentations3 site visits and final offers.
Deter%!&at!o& o Re($o&(!b!*!t+3 The State ma- revie4 the ,ac./round of one or more of the hi/hest(
ran.in/ offerors and its or their .e- team mem,ers and su,contractors to ensure their responsi,ilit-. For
purposes of this RFP3 a .e- team mem,er is a person an offeror identifies ,- name in its Proposal as a
mem,er of its proposed team. The State 4ill not a4ard the Contract to an offeror it determines is not
responsi,le or that has proposed candidates or su,contractors to do the 2or. that are not responsi,le.
The State7s determination of an offeror7s responsi,ilit- ma- include the follo4in/ factors' e:perience of the
offeror and its .e- team mem,ers and su,contractors3 its and their past conduct on previous contracts3
past performance on previous contracts3 a,ilit- to e:ecute this Contract properl-3 and mana/ement s.ill.
The State ma- ma.e this determination of responsi,ilit- ,ased on the offeror7s Proposal3 reference
evaluations3 a revie4 of the offeror7s financial a,ilit-3 and an- other information the State requests or
determines is relevant.
Some of the factors used in determinin/ an offeror7s responsi,ilit-3 such as reference chec.s3 ma- also
,e used in the technical evaluation of Proposals in phase t4o of the evaluation process. 1n evaluatin/
those factors in phase t4o3 the 4ei/ht the State assi/ns to them3 if an-3 for purposes of the technical
evaluation 4ill not preclude the State from re5ectin/ a Proposal ,ased on a determination that an offeror is
not responsi,le. For e:ample3 if the offerorLs financial a,ilit- is adequate3 the value3 if an-3 assi/ned to
the offerorLs relative financial a,ilit- in relation to other offerors in the technical evaluation phase ma- or
ma- not ,e si/nificant3 dependin/ on the nature of the 2or.. 1f the State ,elieves the offerorLs financial
a,ilit- is inadequate3 the State ma- re5ect the offerorLs Proposal despite its other merits.
The State ma- ma.e a responsi,ilit- determination at an- time durin/ the evaluation process3 ,ut it
t-picall- 4ill do so onl- once it has evaluated the technical merits and costs of the Proposals. The State
al4a-s 4ill revie4 the responsi,ilit- of an offeror selected for an a4ard ,efore ma.in/ the a4ard3 if it has
not alread- done so earlier in the evaluation process. 1f the State determines the offeror selected for
a4ard is not responsi,le3 the State then ma- /o do4n the line of remainin/ offerors3 accordin/ to ran.3
and determine responsi,ilit- 4ith the ne:t hi/hest(ran.in/ offeror.
Reere&ce .hec=(3 )s part of the State7s determination of an offeror7s responsi,ilit-3 the State ma-
conduct reference chec.s to verif- and validate the offeror7s and its proposed candidates7 and
su,contractors7 past performance. Reference chec.s that indicate poor or failed performance ,- the
offeror or a proposed candidate or su,contractor ma- ,e cause for re5ection of the offeror7s Proposal.

The State ma- consider the qualit- of an offeror7s and its candidates7 and su,contractors7 references as
part of the technical evaluation phase3 as 4ell as in the State7s determination of the offeror7s

important for the successful operation and mana/ement of the 2or. and a positive 4or.in/ relationship

F!&a&c!a* Ab!*!t+. Part of State7s determination of an offeror7s responsi,ilit- ma- include the offerorLs
financial a,ilit- to perform the Contract. This RFP ma- e:pressl- require the su,mission of audited
financial statements from all offerors in their Proposals3 ,ut if this RFP does not ma.e this an e:press
requirement3 the State still ma- insist an offeror su,mit audited financial statements for up to the past
three -ears3 if the State is concerned an offeror ma- not have the financial a,ilit- to carr- out the
Contract. )lso3 the State ma- consider financial information other than the information this RFP requires

The State ma- limit ne/otiations to specific aspects of the RFP or the offeror7s Proposal. Should the
evaluation result in a top(ran.ed Proposal3 the State ma- limit ne/otiations to onl- that offeror and not
