9.5.4  Project Cost Efficiency Sensitivity

As described in Section 3.1.1.1, efficiencies may be included in the Shadow Bid to adjust cost estimates. Accounting for these efficiencies involves a sensitivity analysis beginning with the estimated efficiencies for the Shadow Bid, then reducing them incrementally to zero as the worst case scenario, should the anticipated efficiencies not materialize. The results are compared on a quantitative value for money basis, as well as on the basis of the impact on the ASPs.
