Technical Proposal
TP-183
Question 1: The evaluation criteria lists a range of 1-3 projects for each Team Leader resume; however, the instructions indicate on page 3 that three (3) projects shall be listed for each Team Leader to show the appropriate experience. Will three projects per Team Leader be permissible?
Answer 1: The Instructions for Section 10 should have said up to three (3) similar projects. The number of projects for each team leader are listed below each primary task. For instance, Roadway Design Three projects; Pavement Design One project; Utility Engineering Two projects.
Question 2: For the evaluation criteria in section 10, for Geotechnical Engineering, is the key experience required to be covered by maximum of two projects OR both projects needs to have all the listed key experience?
