Solicitation | RFP | Section II: Evaluation Method and Criteria

RFP ref. No.: RFP/2023/47357

SECTION II: EVALUATION METHOD AND


CRITERIA
Proposals submitted in response to this RFP shall be evaluated following the cumulative analysis methodology,
which consists of the following steps:

1. Preliminary screening of proposals using formal and eligibility criteria: This includes an assessment
of whether proposals comply with the formal and eligibility criteria stated in the “Formal and Eligibility
Criteria” table below. All proposals substantially compliant at this stage will go through subsequent
evaluation as follows.

2. Technical evaluation using qualification criteria: This determines which proposals are substantially
compliant to the qualification criteria stated in the “Qualification Criteria” table below, and rejects
non-compliant proposals. Only proposals meeting or exceeding the qualification criteria shall be
considered substantially compliant.

3. Technical evaluation using technical criteria: This determines the technical points achieved by each
proposal, as per maximum points assigned per criteria group included in the “Parts of the Technical
Proposal Evaluation” table below. Only proposals that meet the minimum threshold indicated in the
“Technical Criteria” table below shall be considered substantially compliant. Evaluation of the technical
proposals shall be completed prior to the opening and comparison of the financial proposals.

4. Financial evaluation: Financial proposals will only be opened for the proposals that have achieved the
minimum threshold for substantial compliance of technical evaluation. Proposals achieving above the
minimum threshold in technical evaluation shall be checked for any arithmetic errors following Article 28
[Minor Informalities, Errors or Omissions]. Schedule 4.1 A [Breakdown of the Fees and Reimbursable
cost] shall be used for the financial evaluation. Schedule 4.1.B [Daily Rate Schedule] will not be used for
the financial evaluation but will inform the assessment of reasonableness of cost. The maximum number
of points is stated below and will be allocated to the lowest price financial proposal. Financial proposals
from other offerors will receive points in reverse proportion according to the following formula:

Points for the financial proposal being evaluated =

[Maximum number of points for the financial proposal] x [lowest price]


____________________________________________________________

[Price of proposal being evaluated]

5. Combined analysis: This evaluation will be conducted based on the cumulative analysis, analyzing all
relevant costs, risks and benefits of each proposal which could be throughout the whole life cycle of the
works for which the Services will be required and in the context of the Project as a whole. The cumulative
analysis includes the scores from the technical and financial evaluation with a predefined weighting. The
proposal obtaining the overall highest score after adding the score of the technical and the financial
proposals, is thus the most responsive to the needs of UNOPS in terms of value for money, and will be
recommended for award.

6. Background check/due diligence: After completion of the evaluation but prior to the award, UNOPS
shall conduct background checks/due diligence on the offeror recommended for award, to confirm that the
offeror meets the criteria set forth in this RFP or as appropriate to the nature of the procurement process.
UNOPS may reject an offeror’s proposal on the basis of the findings. Offerors shall permit UNOPS
representatives to access their facilities at any reasonable time to inspect the offeror’s premises,
equipment, tools and/or systems, Plant or Materials.

The maximum number of points which an offeror may obtain for its proposal is as follows:

● Technical proposal = 70 points

Solicitation | RFP | Section II: Evaluation Method and Criteria
RFP ref. No.: RFP/2023/47357

● Financial proposal = 30 points

The weighting of the technical and financial proposals will be 70%–30% (technical proposal percentage – financial
proposal percentage).

At any time during the evaluation process, UNOPS may request clarification or further information in writing from
offerors. The offeror’s responses shall not contain any changes regarding the substance, including the technical and
financial part of their proposal. UNOPS may use such information to interpret and evaluate the relevant proposal.
