Preston selects Keller Associates for transportation engineering work after RFQ evaluation
Summary
Following a qualifications-based selection process, Preston City Council chose Keller Associates for upcoming transportation engineering services; Keller scored 96.2 in the committee review versus 87.4 for the runner-up.
City staff presented the outcome of a qualifications-based selection process for transportation engineering services. The request for qualifications was noticed and two firms responded; staff reported average committee scores of 96.2 for Keller Associates and 87.4 for Jones & DeMill. The evaluation committee included the mayor, staff and the chief of police, and used category scoring to rank proposals.
A motion to select Keller Associates was made, seconded and approved by the council. Council members commented that both firms were strong, but the committee rated Keller higher on "understanding the city and approach," and Keller had previously provided an engineering study of local roadways, a point cited during discussion. Staff will proceed with contracting steps consistent with the RFQ process and applicable procurement rules.
