Evaluating Responses

This article outlines how evaluators can complete their section evaluations once the Start Evaluation Task has been completed

Section Evaluation Page

By following the link in the email you received informing you to start an evaluation, you will be taken to the appropriate Section Evaluation page. This can alternatively be located from the Home Page by selecting the relevant link under My Evaluations

  1. Access supplier responses from this list too enter your evaluation scores. Clicking on the blue link will open the Supplier Evaluation page
  2. As you work through your evaluation, your Completion Status will automatically increase
  3. When you are done, click Finished Scoring. This will notify the procurement lead. 

Some responses may require you to select Pass or Fail, rather than enter a score. Each supplier's overall Pass/Fail status is shown on this page in the Pass or Fail? column. If you mark just one response as a Fail, it will display as a Fail on this page, indicating you may not need to complete any further evaluation. 

Supplier Evaluation Page

The Supplier Evaluation page lists all of the responses an Evaluator needs to score for the selected supplier.

The layout of this page will vary depending on the type of Requirement.

  • Some requirements may prompt you to select a score from a picklist
  • For requirements that asked for an attachment, these will be accessible from a hyperlink. Click on the link to open a preview and/or download the document from a new tab on your browser.
