Written by GovTribe AI ·

This is an instructional document on cost formulas used in RFP scoring methodologies, specifically related to the Ryan White Part A Planning Council Support contract opportunity in Connecticut. The RFP seeks to procure independent Planning Council support services for the New Haven & Fairfield Counties EMA Planning Council, with the selected contractor responsible for providing administrative, technical, and logistical support to enable the Planning Council to fulfill its federally mandated responsibilities. The initial contract term is seven months, running from August 1, 2026 through February 28, 2027, with plans for two additional one-year contracts to commence on March 1, 2027.

The document illustrates the "Reward Low Cost" scoring methodology, which calculates point values using a cost formula that divides the lowest overall proposal cost by each individual proposal's cost to determine the percentage of available points awarded. In the example provided, proposals range from $100 to $500, with the lowest-cost proposal receiving the maximum points allocation. The initial contract is not to exceed $35,000, with the pricing structure and subsequent contract values to be determined through the RFP evaluation process based on submitted proposals.

A Closer Look at Cost Formulas The scoring methods Reward Average Cost and Reward Low Cost rely on cost formulas to track and calculate point values. Reward Low Cost, for example, uses this equation to determine how many points each individual submission should receive:

Lowest overall cost / Proposal's cost = X% of the possible points Expand the tabs to see Reward Low Cost in action.

Proposal A costs $100. How many points will it receive?

$100 (Lowest Proposal) / $100 (Proposal A) = 100% of 30 points

30 points awarded Proposal B costs $200. How many points will it receive?

$100 (Lowest Proposal) / $200 (Proposal B) = 50% of 30 points 15 points awarded Proposal C costs $500. How many points will it receive?

$100 (Lowest Proposal) / $500 (Proposal C) = 20% of 30 points 6 points awarded
