Evaluation Synopsis

I. Evaluation Process

A Responsible Vendor is a vendor that demonstrates it has the ability to successfully perform the duties identified by the solicitation. A Responsive proposal is one that is submitted in accordance with the solicitation instructions and meets all mandatory requirements identified in the solicitation.

Phase 1 – Mandatory Minimum Requirements: In the initial phase of the evaluation process, the Lead State will review all proposals timely received. Unacceptable proposals

(non-responsive proposals not conforming to RFP requirements) will be eliminated from further consideration.

2. The Proposer must agree, if awarded a contract, that all “catalog” pricing must be published and available at all times via website access, and/or electronic/printed price pages.

The Lead State may utilize all Bidder information, without regard to a proposal’s technical score, to determine fair market value for goods or services sought. The Lead State is not obligated to accept the lowest price proposal.

The Lead State strongly encourages strict adherence to the Lead State Terms and Conditions. The

Conditions in track changes (i.e., visible edits) with an explanation of the Bidder’s need for each proposed change. Failure to include track changes with an explanation of the Bidder’s need for the proposed change constitutes the Bidder’s acceptance of the Lead State Terms and Conditions.
