How are RFPs scored?

RFPs are scored and awarded using a point system. Each aspect of an RFP — such as technical, cost, disadvantaged business participation, etc. — is allotted certain number of points. The total points and their distribution can vary from RFP to RFP; however, the minimum weight for Disadvantaged Business participation points within an RFP has been set at 20%. A proposal will earn points on the various aspects, and the total will determine which bidder will win the contract.
