\"6. How will be proposals be evaluated?

For most large-scale projects, the evaluators will compile an evaluation grid against which they will score the bids. On EU projects, the evaluation grid is often included with the Request for Proposal.\"

(..)

An evaluation grid is a matrix with the key criteria on one side and the weighted scores on the other.

(...)

However, in European Union contracts, the RFP may stipulate that most economically advantageous tender (M.E.A.T) will win the contract.\"

Peer comment(s):

neutral Jane Lamb-Ruiz (X) : grille d'évaluation...not d'analyse...there is a difference
11 mins
Yes, there is a difference, but without more context, my suggestion is no less valid than yours.
agree Julia Gal : Yes. Given that it's being handed out to customers, I would assume its is a quality questionnaire of some kind (evaluation "chart" , or even "sheet", maybe?)

Yes, thank you Julia. :-) I see them all the time when I translate calls for bids and bid proposals.
agree Aisha Maniar : yes, and "chart" is good as well
9 hrs
yes, thank you Aisha :-)
agree Karoly Lazar : ...and could either be evaluation or assessment grid or matrix--depending on context and subject field

Yes, exactly. Thank you Karoly :-)

a grid to analyse contracts..or analytical grid

BUT, it doesn't work too well in marketing/PR lingo..in English..il faut toujours repensé ces textes

NO NO NO....we actually say: GRID ANALYSIS

CAREFUL...IN COMPUTERESE, they say ANALYSIS GRID...either one though GRID ANALYSIS is the correct and formal way to say it...

FINAL; GRID ANALYSIS....GOOGLE: Grid Analysis [mindtool,com]

***Grid Analysis*** - ***Making a Choice Where Many Factors Must be Balanced***

How to use tool:

Grid Analysis is a useful technique to use for making a decision. It is most effective where you have a ***number of good alternatives and many factors to take into account.****



The first step is to list your options and then the factors that are important for making the decision. Lay these out in a table, with options as the row labels, and factors as the column headings.



Next work out the relative importance of the factors in your decision. Show these as numbers. We will use these to weight your preferences by the importance of the factor. These values may be obvious. If they are not, then use a technique such as Paired Comparison Analysis to estimate them.

The next step is to work your way across your table, scoring each option for each of the important factors in your decision. Score each option from 0 (poor) to 3 (very good). Note that you do not have to have a different score for each option - if none of them are good for a particular factor in your decision, then all options should score 0.

Now multiply each of your scores by the values for your relative importance. This will give them the correct overall weight in your decision.

Finally add up these weighted scores for your options. The option that scores the highest wins!

Example:

A windsurfing enthusiast is about to replace his car. He needs one that not only carries a board and sails, but also that will be good for business travel. He has always loved open-topped sports cars. No car he can find is good for all three things.

His options are:

A four wheel drive, hard topped vehicle
A comfortable \'family car\'
An estate car
A sports car
Criteria that he wants to consider are:

Cost
Ability to carry a sail board at normal driving speed
Ability to store sails and equipment securely
Comfort over long distances
Fun!
Nice look and build quality to car
Firstly he draws up the table shown in Figure 1, and scores each option by how well it satisfies each factor:


Figure 1: Example Grid Analysis Showing Unweighted Assessment of How Each Type of Car Satisfies Each Factor

Factors: Cost Board Storage Comfort Fun Look Total
Weights:
Sports Car 1 0 0 1 3 3
4 Wheel Drive 0 3 2 2 1 1
Family Car 2 2 1 3 0 0
Estate Car 2 3 3 3 0 1


Next he decides the relative weights for each of the factors. He multiplies these by the scores already entered, and totals them. This is shown in Figure 2:



Figure 2: Example Grid Analysis Showing Weighted Assessment of How Each Type of Car Satisfies Each Factor

Factors: Cost Board Storage Comfort Fun Look Total
Weights: 4 5 1 2 3 4
Sports Car 4 0 0 2 9 12 27
4 Wheel Drive 0 15 2 4 3 4 28
Family Car 8 10 1 6 0 0 25
Estate Car 8 15 3 6 0 4 36



This gives an interesting result: Despite its lack of fun, an estate car may be the best choice.

If the wind-surfer still feels unhappy with the decision, maybe he has underestimated the importance of one of the factors. Perhaps he should weight \'fun\' by 7!
