such a programme; and
(e) National participation, i.e. the extent to which nationals have been included
among key staff; where applicable.
(26) When determining the points to each criterion under Su-Rule (25), the Procuring
Entity shall consider -
(a) the points given to experience can be relatively low, since this factor has already
been taken into account when short-listing the Applicant;
(b) in the case of complex assignments, such as multidisciplinary, feasibility or
management studies, more points should be given to the methodology and work
plan and similarly higher points may be preferable for key staff in assignments
where personnel input is of paramount importance;
(c) transfer of knowledge may be more important in some assignments and in such
cases, it should be given higher points to reflect its importance; and
(d) when RFPs are issued on an international basis, points can be awarded for the
use of national Consultants as key staff and generally the maximum number of
points available shall be ten (10).
