The State of Florida, Department of Lottery, (the Lottery), received responses to its request for proposals to provide for a gaming system and services for the Lottery, RFP No. 95/96-001/R (the RFP). GTECH Corporation (GTECH) and Automated Wagering International, Inc. (AWI) were respondents to the RFP. The respondents did not contest the Department's determination under Part I finding GTECH and AWI preliminarily responsible and responsive vendors in that the vendors had shown financial responsibility, security and integrity. The Lottery then considered the responses by GTECH and AWI to Part II, the technical proposals by the vendors. Part II also examined responsiveness, responsibility, financial responsibility, security, and integrity. Subsequently the Lottery determined to commence negotiations for the award of a contract to provide the gaming system and services called for in the RFP. AWI was the proposed awardee based upon higher scores it received in competition with GTech under Part II. GTECH opposes the decision to award a contract to AWI. In its challenge GTECH contests the proposed agency action to award to AWI based upon a claim that AWI is not a responsive or responsible bidder to Part II. GTECH also contests the manner in which the Lottery performed its evaluation to determine the proposed awardee based upon scores assigned for Part II, assuming that AWI was determined to be a responsive and responsible bidder. Finally, GTech challenges the Lottery proposed decision finding AWI financially responsible. The hearing de novo was conducted to determine whether the Department's proposed agency action was contrary to its governing statutes, rule or policies or specifications in Part II. This recommended order examines whether the proposed agency action as challenged by GTECH was clearly erroneous, contrary to competition, arbitrary or capricious. Section 120.57(3)(f), Florida Statutes (1996 Supp.).The method employed by the agency in evaluating bid proposals was arbitrary.

This is a proceeding brought by the Petitioner GTECH Corporation (GTECH) challenging the results of a reevaluation of select responses to RFP No. 95/96-001/R (the RFP) made by GTECH and its competitor, Automated Wagering International, Inc. (AWI). The RFP is a product of the State of Florida, Department of Lottery, (the Lottery). The reevaluation of portions of responses to Sections 2 and 4 and all responses to Section 3 was based upon the final order entered by Dr. Marcia Mann, Secretary of the Lottery, entered June 4, 1997, in DOAH Case No. 96-5461BID, associated with the original evaluation of the RFP. The results of the reevaluation performed on the aforementioned sections, in the context of the original evaluation, led to the preliminary determination by the Lottery that AWI was entitled to the award of a contract. That preliminary decision was noticed on September 2, 1997. GTECH challenged that choice as clearly erroneous, contrary to competition, arbitrary and capricious. GTECH also questioned whether the actions by the Lottery were contrary to the governing statutes, rules, policies, or bid specifications in the RFP. To be decided is the question of whether a vendor may be selected based upon the outcome of the reevaluation, together with the results of the initial evaluation not overturned by the June 4, 1997 order entered by the secretary.The results of a reconvened hearing to consider response to select sections within the RFP favored the vendor initially chosen by the Department of Lottery.
