Evaluating Responses to the EIR

Once contractors have responded to your EIR, you can review and evaluate their responses.

To view responses to the EIR, go to the Documents screen and click the Evaluate Responses button from among the action buttons on the far right.

This will open the Evaluate Responses screen.

Use the Table of Contents on the left to navigate through the EIR responses:

• Sections where you have completed your evaluation will be shown in green.
• Sections where you have started your evaluation but not completed it will be shown in amber.
• Sections where you haven’t started your evaluation will be shown in red.

Where a section has sub-headings, you can use the arrow beside that section to expand them.

When you select a section in the table of contents, you will see each contractor’s response in the main panel.

Use the buttons at the top of the main panel to switch between different contractors’ responses.

You can leave comments on a particular section for other assessors using the Comments on The Response to This Section panel on the right.

Based on each contractor’s response, you can:

• Enter your Assessment of their response into the text box beneath it
• Enter a Suggested score for their response
• Enter an Actual score for their response

Click Save to save your changes.

If your evaluation of a section is complete, select the Section Rating Complete checkbox at the bottom of this panel, and then Save.

To add additional notes based on an interview with the contractor, click Interview Notes beneath the table of contents.

To view all evaluation scores and compare each contactor’s overall performance, click Summary of Responses.
