Each proposal will be reviewed for completeness to ensure that all mandatory requirements are addressed satisfactorily. The committee may request additional clarification/information from the responding vendor(s).

The committee will evaluate the quality and completeness of each response as it addresses each requirement of the RFP. All non-cost-related areas of the response are evaluated during this phase. A list of areas being reviewed for this specific RFP, along with the associated point values is included in the Evaluation Criteria below. The committee may in its sole discretion and in the course of the evaluation request presentation(s)/demonstration(s) with one or more selected vendors.
