<p class="MsoNormal"><i>Which</i> <i>are all expiring this year</i> and for which I need to go out for bid… so while we’re here, would anyone who does statewide procurement mind sharing your Scope of Work and most particularly, your required vendor responses
and evaluation rubric?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Our questions are detailed and our rubric builds directly off the questions, making it really intense -more so than I think will be fair for evaluators to deal with (think 30+ points to evaluate).<o:p></o:p></p>
