Basis of Selection
SACC Manual Clause (A0027T) (2012-07-16) , Basis of Selection - Highest Combined Rating of Technical Merit and Price
- To be declared responsive, a bid must:
- Comply with all the requirements of the bid solicitation
- Meet all mandatory technical evaluation criteria.
- Bids not meeting (a) or (b) will be declared non-responsive.
- The selection will be based on the highest responsive combined rating of technical merit and price. The ratio will be 70 % for the technical merit and 30 % for the price.
- To establish the technical merit score, the overall technical score for each responsive bid will be determined as follows: total number of points obtained / maximum number of points available multiplied by the ratio of 40 %.
- To establish the pricing score, each responsive bid will be prorated against the lowest evaluated price and the ratio of 60 %.
- For each responsive bid, the technical merit score and the pricing score will be added to determine its combined rating.
- Neither the responsive bid obtaining the highest technical score nor the one with the lowest evaluated price will necessarily be accepted. The responsive bid with the highest combined rating of technical merit and price will be recommended for award of a contract.
