This elective course is a one- or two-day option. This course provides participants with the “do’s” and “don’ts” associated with evaluating technical proposals. It provides steps that technical evaluation teams should take in performing evaluations. This course covers the lifecycle of evaluation from team notification to drafting and providing evaluation reports to closing out the evaluation with a final decision.
