Guidance note: This optional Evaluation Criterion should be included where a Project includes key interfaces that may impact the delivery of the Project and a Procuring Agency needs to assess how each Respondent proposes to manage the technical, operational and relevant commercial elements of the interface during the Development Phase or both the Development Phase and the Operating Phase.  

This Evaluation Criterion is part of the Technical Solution and will, therefore, be evaluated by the technical evaluation sub-committee.  However, the technical evaluation sub-committee may require input from the commercial evaluation sub-committee in evaluating Respondents' Interface Management Proposal.  

Remove if not applicable to the Project.
