Page 1 of 1 <br />For more information, contact Public Works <br />Kittitas County shall evaluate statements of qualifications and performance data submitted by firms <br />regarding the proposed services. Following the evaluation, the county may invite one or more firms to <br />meet with county officials to discuss services and the relative benefits of various methods of <br />providing the desired services. The county then selects from among those firms the one "most highly <br />qualified" to provide the required services. County procedures and guidelines are to include a plan to <br />ensure that women, minority, and veteran -owned firms have the maximum opportunity to compete for <br />the contract. The level of firm participation should be consistent with their availability within the <br />relevant professional community. <br />If a satisfactory contract cannot be negotiated, the county formally terminates the negotiations with <br />that firm and attempts to negotiate a contract with the next most qualified firm. The process continues <br />until an agreement is reached or the search is terminated. <br />In emergency situations, the process outlined above for procuring services may be dispensed with <br />upon a finding by the county that an emergency requires the immediate execution of the work <br />involved. <br />All submittals shall become the property of Kittitas County. <br />Kittitas County reserves the right to reject all submittals and re -advertise if necessary. <br />file:///C:/Users/candie.leader/AppData/Local/Packages/Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge_8wekyb... 1/14/2020 <br />
