Evaluation Factors ADJECTIVEDEFINITION EXCELLENT The proposal demonstrates a superior understanding of the requirements and a new or proven approach that significantly exceeds performance or capability standards. The quote has several exceptional strengths that will significantly benefit the government. The quote has no weaknesses or deficiencies. Normal contractor effort and normal government monitoring will be sufficient to minimize risk. The quote is extensive, detailed, and exceeds all requirements and objectives; therefore, has a high probability of meeting the requirements with little or no risk to the government. GOODThe proposal demonstrates a considerable understanding of the requirements and the approach exceeds performance or capability standards. The quote has one or more strengths that will benefit the government. The quote has no deficiencies and any quote weakness has little potential to cause disruption of schedule, increase in cost, or degradation of performance. Normal contractor effort and normal government monitoring will probably be able to overcome difficulties. The quote generally exceeds requirements in minor areas; therefore, has a strong probability of meeting the requirements with little risk to the government. SATISFACTORY The proposal demonstrates an adequate understanding of the requirements and the approach meets all performance or capability standards. The quote has no strengths that exceed the requirement. The quote has no material weaknesses and no deficiencies. The quote has some weakness that can potentially cause disruption of schedules, increase in cost, or degradation of performance. Special contractor emphasis and close government monitoring will minimize any risk. The quote meets the minimum requirements; therefore, has an acceptable probability of successfully meeting the requirements. MARGINALThe proposal fails to meet performance requirements and capability standards in one or more areas. The quote has minor omissions and demonstrates a misunderstanding of the requirement that may be corrected or resolved through discussions without a complete revision of the entire quote. The quote has weaknesses or minor deficiencies that can potentially cause some disruption of schedule, increase in cost, or degradation of performance even with special contractor emphasis, and close government monitoring. UNSATISFACTORYThe proposal fails to demonstrate a basic understanding of the requirements and the approach fails to meet performance or capability standards. The quote has major omissions, weaknesses or deficiencies, and inadequate details to assure the evaluators that the offeror has an understanding of the requirements. The quote presents an unacceptable risk and cannot meet the requirements without major revisions.
