 A public bid opening was conducted on April 23, 2024, pursuant to 27 DCMR § 5034, in
which the Department reviewed each Bidder’s Offer Letter and Bid Form and reported
each Bidder’s total price to complete the Project. Each Bidder’s price was determined by
adding the total price for each line item required by the IFB. Subsequently, as a result, it
was determined that the ADP Group Inc. bid failed to meet the price range and assurance
to complete the full scope of this project within the proposed price; therefore, pursuant to
27 DCMR Section 1532.6, their bid was deemed unreasonable and thereby removed from
further consideration for contract award.

Utilizing the Bidder's preferences as determined by the Department of Small and Local
Business Development (“DSLBD”), each Bidder’s Evaluated Bid Price was determined by
reducing the Bidder’s total price by the appropriate percentage.

In accordance with the IFB, the Department determined that the Bidders were responsible
and responsive to the IFB as they met the Standards of Responsibility described in 27
DCMR Section 4706 as well as the Special Standards of Responsibility included in the

responsible and responsive to the IFB, as they met the Standards of Responsibility
described in 27 DCMR Section 4706 as well as the Special Standard of Responsibility.
Contract Award
Pursuant to the IFB, having found: (i) the Contractor responsible; (ii) the Contractor’s bid
responsive; and (iii) the Contractor’s bid having the lowest evaluated price, the Contracting
