Project Budget <br />M <br />The total project budget is $3,500 funded from Orange County general revenues and a 1998 <br />Certified Local Government grant. Consultants submitting a proposal must provide, insofar as <br />possible, an estimate of the amount of time to be expended on the project. <br />Type of Contract <br />The type of contract awarded will be on a cost reimbursement basis with a "not -to- exceed" <br />provision. <br />Consultant Selection/Oualifications <br />Consultants or consulting firms will be evaluated in part on the basis of the following criteria: <br />1. The person/firm must have performed satisfactorily on previous architectural surveys as <br />indicated by the North Carolina Department of Cultural Resources, State Historic <br />Preservation Office; <br />2. The person/firm must demonstrate a professional writing capability with a style of high <br />quality that is suitable for publication; <br />3. The person/firm must have adequate experience and staff to perform the work required. <br />Previous work in the Chapel Hill, Orange County, and/or Research Triangle area is <br />preferable; <br />4. The person/firm must have the ability to meet the time schedule established for the work; <br />and <br />5. The person/firm must meet the qualifications of 36 CFR 61. <br />There will be two main considerations in the selection process: (1) familiarity with the geographic <br />area, and (2) previous completion of architectural surveys and National Register Nominations for <br />historic districts. However, these will not be the controlling criteria. Where two or more <br />persons /firms are proposed to undertake the project, the proposal must specify in some detail the <br />working relationship envisaged in the partnership or joint venture. This latter requirement does not <br />apply where two or more persons are members of the same firm. <br />Submission of Proposals <br />Persons or consulting firms interested in the project are invited to submit a proposal, including a <br />statement of qualifications which addresses the aforementioned criteria. References and samples of <br />previous work must be submitted as part of the proposal. Proposals must be submitted to Orange <br />County by 5:00 p.m. (DST) on January 15, 1999.
