Document background
The Evaluation Request For Proposal (RFP) document is a critical instrument in Dutch procurement processes, used when organizations need to establish a structured and transparent framework for evaluating supplier proposals. It is particularly relevant for procurement activities that require detailed technical and commercial evaluation, ensuring compliance with Dutch procurement law and EU directives. This document typically follows the initial RFP issuance and precedes the final supplier selection, incorporating specific evaluation methodologies, scoring criteria, and compliance requirements. It serves as a key reference document for evaluation committees and provides clarity to potential suppliers about how their proposals will be assessed. The document must align with the Dutch Public Procurement Act 2012 (Aanbestedingswet 2012) and related regulations, ensuring principles of transparency, objectivity, and equal treatment are maintained throughout the evaluation process.
