6. EVALUATION FACTORS FOR AWARD (1) Basis of Award Selection of the successful Offeror for contract award will be based on an evaluation of proposals against the Factors in this section. Contractors are advised that in the evaluation process, all evaluation factors other than cost or price, when combined, are significantly more important than cost or price. Technical activities must connect directly to costs in the business proposal which is required. FHI Clinical reserves the right to make an award(s) to that Contractor whose proposal provides the best overall value. The evaluation will be based on the demonstrated capabilities of the prospective Contractor in relation to the needs of the project as set forth in the RFP. The merits and confidence ratings of each proposal will be evaluated carefully. Each proposal must document the feasibility of successful implementation of the requirements of the RFP. Each Contractor must submit a proposal that separately and sufficiently addresses evaluation criteria specified below as they relate to the Statement of Work and deliverables. FHI Clinical intends to evaluate proposals and make an award without discussions. However, FHI Clinical reserves the right to conduct discussions if it is determined to be in the best interest of program. Therefore, Contractors are encouraged to ensure that initial proposals contain the Contractor’s most favorable terms and reflect its best possible performance potential.
(2) Technical Evaluation The Offeror shall discuss in detail a Contractor Work Plan that indicates how each aspect of the Statement of Work
is to be accomplished. The Offeror shall demonstrate their full understanding of the key elements essential to
complete the requirement, including how the project will be organized, staffed and managed. The completeness
and quality of the Offeror’s proposal and supporting data will be evaluated in terms of relative risk and the
likelihood of successful completion of the project.
Number Evaluation Factors
I Technical Methodology and Approach
II Organizational Experience
III Project Schedule
IV Personnel

VI Other
General Evaluators will assign a merit and confidence rating to the Evaluation Factors I to VI. Evaluation Factor I will be considered higher than all other evaluation factors combined. Evaluation Factors II and III are considered of equal importance and will be consider at a higher level of importance than IV, V, and VI. Evaluation Factors IV, V, and VI are considered of equal importance.

1. Comparison of proposed prices received in response to the solicitation. 2. Comparison of proposed prices with resources proposed. 3. Obtaining information/reports from other sources of information, including FHI Clinical’s independent cost estimate, if any.
