Vendor selection for this service cannot be based on price alone. Qualitative factors must be taken into account, for which reason the Department intends to issue a Request for Proposals designed to elicit relevant information regarding such qualitative factors. See RFP in this regard. The Department utilized the Competitive Sealed Proposals method of source selection for this procurement when it was last conducted in 2007. Prior procurements of these services by means of Competitive Sealed Bids consistently ended in poor performance, disputes and, often, the imposition of liquidated damages. Firms tended to bid too low in order to win the business and then found themselves (1) unable to recruit Stenographic Reporters who would work for the low bid price and (2) unable to produce sufficient profit margin to make the contract profitable for themselves. By means of the Competitive Sealed Proposals method of source selection, the Department can determine which firms have the experience and expertise to perform well and then enter into negotiations with those firms for the provision of the services at fair and reasonable prices, although not necessarily the lowest price.

Description

The New York City Law Department (the “Department”) is seeking one (1) appropriately qualified vendor to provide Stenographic Reporting Services, including videography services (“Contractor”). The services to be provided include the appearance of qualified stenographic reporters and/or videographers at matters requiring a stenographic record, the simultaneous stenographic capture of all remarks made on the record at the proceedings or matters, and the subsequent production and delivery of word processed and printed verbatim transcripts of the proceedings or matters. Additional deliverables may include printed indices, electronic versions of transcripts and DVDs, to be delivered in an electronic format. Electronic versions of transcripts, when ordered at the same time as the corresponding printed transcript is ordered or subsequent to the ordering of the corresponding printed transcript, shall be formatted in the manner specified in this RFP. Matters for which the stenographic services may be required include, but are not limited to, depositions, hearings conducted pursuant to Section 50-h of the General Municipal Law, examinations before trial, and other proceedings with respect to which it may be required by or advantageous to the City that there be an accurate verbatim transcript. Such matters may be conducted at offices maintained by the Department in its offices in the five boroughs of New York City, at other locations within New York City or, from time to time, at locations outside of New York City, including, but not limited to, correctional facilities throughout New York State, including Westchester County, Sullivan County, Ulster County and Dutchess County. In rare instances, services may be required in Danbury, Connecticut.
