Abstract
The City of Roseville is utilizing a best value selection and contract management process for the delivery of their $19M park renewal and upgrade program.  The best value process minimizes decision of the client, and requires pre-planning from the vendors.  This paper analyzes the impact external factors can have on a successful implementation of best value business model.  The City is using the model after a highly successful initial pilot project, and in response to tremendous political pressure to deliver a high quality, high performance renewal program.
