Demonstrates strengths, no errors, weaknesses or omissions and exceeds expectations in some or all respects 4 Good. The standard of response fully meets expectations. 3 Satisfactory. The response is acceptable but with some minor reservations. 2 Poor. The response is deficient in certain areas where the details of relevant response require the reviewer to make certain assumptions. 1 Very Poor.

Only those tenders who have achieved and acceptable score of \"2\" or above for all scored questions with a pass/fail minimum requirement will proceed to the price analysis."
