STARTING THE BID PROCESS Commonly used procurement process for construction Rehab and Reconstruction Competitive Bids What are shortfalls of this process? Length of time in getting bids Length of time in making awards Number of times you may have to do it

INNOVATIVE PROCUREMENT Developing a process that is beneficial to the community How to improve procurement? What does this mean to a community recovering from disaster? Takes out the guesswork on market conditions Saves time in the bid process Cuts out the middleman time Impacts recovery time

NO GUESSING ON MARKET CONDITIONS Uses benchmark data that is region and time specific Stabilize overhead and profit considerations Allows for uniform adjustments due cost increases and inflation

SAVES TIME ON BID PROCESS Uses pre-qualified construction contractors Uses existing data that has been pre-determined to be cost reasonable Allows for contracts to be written immediately after construction scopes are defined Shortens time for advertisement and award

NO MIDDLEMAN Contractors no longer have to go and get pricing from individual trades

RECOVERY TIME IMPACT Contractors are in place sooner Award determinations and amounts are made faster Construction starts sooner Applicants are back in their homes faster Change orders are more easily priced and agreed upon
