3. Financial Evaluation and Comparison of Proposals

Proposals will be compared using the following methodology to determine the best evaluated proposal:

{For QCBS only}

To determine financial scores for each proposal, the lowest priced proposal shall be given a financial score of 100, and other proposals shall be given a score proportionate to this, by application of the following formula:

              Sf = 100 x Fm/F            in which:

              Sf       denotes the financial score of the proposal under consideration;

              Fm    is the price of the lowest price proposal that passed the technical evaluation;

              F       denotes the price of the proposal under consideration.

A total score (S) will be determined for each proposal, by combining its technical (St) and financial (Sf) scores using the following formula and weightings:

              S = (St x T%) + (Sf x P%)

The weights given to the scores of the Technical and Financial Proposals are:

              T = [70 - 90]

              P = [10 - 30]

Proposals will be ranked and the proposal achieving the highest total score will be recommended for contract award, subject to satisfactory negotiations.

{For QBS only}

The financial proposal will be reviewed in order to prepare for negotiations.

{For FBS only}

The maximum budget is: __________. Proposals exceeding this budget will be rejected.

The proposal with the highest technical score, which is within the budget, will be recommended for contract award, subject to satisfactory negotiations.

{For LCS only}

Proposals will be ranked. The lowest priced proposal will be recommended for contract award, subject to satisfactory negotiations.
