E60ZH-070003/F
N••••••••@••••••••.••.ca
Following the renewal of Learning Services Standing Offers
(RFSOSA), Solicitation No. E60ZH-070003/F
reference number: PW-$$ZH-121-27655 and pursuant to the
Financial Evaluation methodology set out in
the solicitation as extracted hereunder:
Conduct of Financial Evaluation
PWGSC will conduct the financial evaluation based on the
methodology detailed below using the firm all
inclusive per diem rates proposed by the Offeror.
Definition of Original Median - the median calculated from all
technically responsive offers submitted in
the RFSO .
Definition of Adjusted Median - the median calculated by
removing all offers greater than 30%
and all offers lower than minus 30% of the Original Median.
(a) For the technically responsive Offerors, the financial
offers submitted in response to this solicitation
will be assessed independently.
(b) The following steps will be taken for each Category Level in
each Region and sub-region:
Step 1 Each Offeror will have an "evaluated cost" calculated for
every Category and Level in each Region
and Metropolitan area it submitted an Offer. The total evaluated
cost will be determined in accordance with the Financial Offer
template in Attachment "F"
Step 2 A " Median" will be calculated for every Category and
Level using the Total Evaluated Cost
calculated in Step 1. A median is the middle offer in a set of
offers whereby half the offers are greater and
half are lower. For example in the set {100, 150, 200, 400,
900}, the median is 200.
Step 3 (i) Each of the remaining offers that have an 'evaluated
cost' that falls outside the "
Median" band of plus or minus 30% for a Category Level will be
removed from the total evaluated cost
population.
(ii) The "Median" will be based on those offers with a total
evaluated cost falling within the
"Median" band of plus or minus 30% for the Category Level.
Step 4 (i) Any Offeror proposing a total evaluated cost greater
than the "Median" band of plus
30% will be considered not financially compliant and will be
considered "Inactive" and will receive no
further consideration for that Category Level. The Offeror will
not be available to Identified User for any
new requirements raised under the SO for that specific Category
Level for the SO period.
(ii) Any Offeror proposing a total evaluated cost that is less
than or equal to the " Median" band
of plus 30% will be considered compliant for that specific
Category Level.
