Judy and Jim are available. I'd like to get the process rolling, because I'm concerned that as we get further and further into summer that it will continue to be difficult to find free time.
My thought was that we should put together a "scoring sheet" for each bid. First round review will eliminate all bids in excess of the amount we received. Second round will evaluate whether and how well they responded to the requirements. Finally, we can contact one to two references, if there are still several in the running. I have a feeling that we will have to call a second meeting, just given the interest that has been shown for the RFP, to complete the reviews. I can contact Phil or Barbara on the 14th to see how many were received.
If possible, do you want to review the bids before the meeting and give us your input?

Michelle,
I am not free on the 21st. I'd prefer another evening. Let's see what others say.

Subject: Energy Committee Meeting
Hi All,
There has been a great deal of interest in the RFP for the Atkinson Energy Audits. In addition to the 7 companies that I sent this to, I received an additional 7 requests through this afternoon.
I would like to delay the Energy Comittee meeting to Monday, June 21st. Energy Audit bids are due on Monday, June 14th. There was however, an error in the original announcement which read Monday, June 17th (not the correct date), so I think we have to accept anything received through Thursday, June 17th. Phil or Barbara will record the bids on the 17th. We can get the documetns from the Selectmen on the 21st and review, record and discuss them. We will plan on meeting at 7:30 instead of 7:00pm, since the Selectmen's meeting doesn't start until 7:30.
We can decide that night whether we feel a follow-up meeting is required for additional time to review.
Thanks,
Michelle
