 RFP Questions and Answers


Santa Monica Fire Department
Communications/Dispatch
Questions and Answers
 

Question 1:  When is the RFP due?

Answer 1: Proposals are due by 5:00 PM Pacific Daylight Time, Friday, August 1, 2008
 


Question 2:  Clarify the 11,000 figure in the proposal – is that 11,000 phone calls per year, or actual dispatched incident volume?

Answer 2: The 11,000 number is actual incidents.


Question 3:   Section 6.2 on page 7 asks for a detailed project plan and then lists what it would like the project plan to include.  Two items listed for inclusion are ‘formal review’ and ‘approval points’.  I don’t really understand what is meant by these.

Answer 3: "Formal review and approval points” would be a meeting to go over documentation of objectives and tasks that have been completed assuring the results meet the expectations of the Fire Department.


Question 4: In order to prepare an appropriate task plan for the above referenced study, has SMFD or the City budgeted a specific amount for the study or provided guidance as to an expected cost range (e.g. $60K-$80K)? If you could share this, it would be appreciated.

Answer 4: The Fire Department has been directed to complete this evaluation by our City Council with no discussion relating to cost.
