• Proponents are required to propose a Base Rate and Variable Rate for each vehicle type per Zone for each of the five (5) years in the Agreement. The Pricing will be scored on a relative pricing formula using the 5 year total cost for all vehicle types for each Zone. STOPR will calculate the Total Evaluated Cost ("TEC") for the 5 years of the Agreement. Each Proponent will receive a portion of the total possible points allocated to price for the particular Zone it has bid on using the formulas contained in the Rate Bid Form.
• The lowest TEC will receive 100% of the points allocated for pricing and the remaining Proponents will receive points based on a conversion factor from the lowest TEC for each Zone and vehicle type times.

• The conversion factor is based on the range of Technical scores after the Threshold established in Stage II which is established at 23.4 points (41.6 - 65) representing 36% of possible Technical scores and the high and low TEC pricing proposed by Proponents. To calculate the conversion factor the pricing scores will be using 36% of possible point available in price score, which equates to a range of 12.6 (35*.36). This number will be used to determine the conversion factor as follows:
• 12.6/(lowest TEC/lowest TEC x 35) - (lowest TEC/highest TEC x35) = Price conversion factor
• The formula used to calculate the pricing score will be as follows: • Points Available –( ( Points Available – Lowest TEC/Proponents TEC
x 35) x Conversion Factor) = Pricing Score
