Annex III,rev.1<br />

Page 81<br />

Chapter 6: TEB responsibilities subsequent to the receipt of proposals<br />

The TEB, shall assess proposals, mark them, apply weighting factors when applicable,<br />

prepare a final report on the results and make a recommendation as to any action to be<br />

taken as an outcome of the evaluation, in accordance with the following procedures.<br />

6.1 Preliminary assessment<br />

6.1.1 Prior to a qualitative assessment of the proposals admitted for evaluation by the<br />

TOB, the TEB shall undertake a second verification that each proposal is compliant<br />

with the formal conditions specific to the RFP.<br />

6.1.2 If any of the above formal conditions, or if any other element specifically required<br />

in the conditions of the RFP (including key acceptance factors) is missing and that<br />

omission is such as to render the proposal substantively incomplete, then the TEB shall<br />

eliminate such proposal from further evaluation.<br />

6.2 Evaluation<br />

6.2.1 The TEB shall evaluate against the set of criteria defined in the RFP:<br />

i. the completeness and the quality of the proposal against the requirements of the<br />

RFP.<br />

ii.<br />

whether the RFP requirements are complied with.<br />

6.2.2 The TEB shall identify the strengths and weaknesses of each proposal in respect<br />

to the criteria 29 .<br />

6.2.3 If a statement contained in a proposal needs clarification, the procedure to be<br />

followed in such a case is the one described in Chapter 7 below.<br />

6.3 Discussion of findings<br />

6.3.1 Prior to the marking of proposals the TEB shall discuss its findings on each aspect<br />

of a proposal.<br />

6.3.2 The TEB Chairperson shall guide the discussion in such a way that any significant<br />

difference of opinion may be reduced, and if this is not possible, then this is clearly<br />

identified and recorded.<br />

6.4 Marking of proposals<br />

6.4.1 The TEB following its discussion of findings shall award marks to each of the<br />

criteria.<br />

6.4.2 TEB members shall mark all criteria for which they have a general understanding<br />

29 This shall be done by comparing the proposal with the RFP requirements, and not by comparing<br />

proposals among themselves.
