CPM Submission Evaluation of Proposals: A two-stage procedure will be utilized, with evaluation of the technical component being completed prior to any price component being opened and compared. The total number of points which a firm/institution may obtain for both components is 135. The Price Component will only be evaluated if the Technical Component of that proposal achieves a minimum of 70 points. Proposals failing to obtain this minimum threshold will not be eligible for further consideration

CPM Submission Evaluation of Proposals: The technical component, which has a total possible value of 100 points, will be evaluated using the following criteria: 1.A legal existence with a minimum of 3 years [pass /fail] 2.Firm’s expertise, capability and experience (30%). This includes;  Size reputation, relevant experience in performing similar tasks for other major clients, in Tanzania and elsewhere.  Knowledge and experience of the sanitation and hygiene sector, particularly hygiene promotion, awareness raising, demand creation and advocacy. 3.Understanding and proposed approach to the roll and the detailed Work Plan (40%). 4.Proposed personnel (suitability, experience, qualifications and languages (30%).

CPM Submission Evaluation of Proposals: The maximum number of points for the Price Component is 35. This maximum number of points will be allocated to the lowest price proposal. All other price proposals will receive points in inverse proportion according to the following formula: Points for the Price Component of a proposal being evaluated = [Maximum number of points for the Price Component] x [Lowest price] [Price of proposal being evaluated]

QUESTIONS: The second point in the criteria for evaluation of bids deals with the “Firm’s expertise, capability and experience [30%]”. This includes: “Knowledge and experience of the sanitation and hygiene sectors, particularly hygiene promotion, awareness raising, demand creation and advocacy.” Can you clarify the type of experience and the scope of experience a firm may need in regards to this evaluation criteria? If the Executing Agency (EA) does not have a grant management mechanism, would the CPM’s role involve helping the EA establish one?
