A. Selection of Service Providers
When selecting service providers, the local agency must take into account such things as the past performance of the contractor in providing similar services, the contractor's demonstrated effectiveness, fiscal accountability, cost efficiency and other factors which the local agency determines are appropriate. A process must exist that documents these factors were considered.
B. Contract Outcomes
The contract should be written so that acceptable performance and outcomes are clear to both parties. Additionally, the contract should make clear how outcomes will be measured and with what frequency. Success should be defined incrementally and in terms of completion.
