After receipt, each Proposal will be initially checked for compliance with the RFP and for completeness. Proposals which are not substantially complete or which are non-compliant with the RFP may be rejected.
During the evaluation period, the State reserves the right to call for further information from Respondents, which may include a request for interview or presentation, to assist it in its consideration of Proposals. The State may raise any matters for clarification in order to refine and finalise, with the Respondent, the definition of obligations, the allocation of risk and the payments required from the State.
