After mandatory requirements and criteria have been defined the responses can then be accessed. All responses will be displayed in a list, and selecting any of those responses will display all detail associated with it.

For each response you can do the following actions:

• Update offer amount
• Download attachments
• Add or remove attachments
• Log clarifications
• Conduct an assessment of each response against the mandatory requirements
• Choose to exclude the response from moving forward into scoring

When assessing against the mandatory requirements, a questionnaire is generated based on the mandatory requirements that were defined in the previous step. During the assessment, you can log an answer (yes/no) against each question and a comment.

Mandatory requirements are intentionally answered as binary as they are intended to be pass/fail rather than scored on a spectrum.

Making a change to price is available at multiple steps throughout the process. Any time a price change occurs a simple log is added so that the history of price changes is transparent.
