D-4. REVIEW OF MANDATORY AND MANDATORY SCORED QUESTIONS The Evaluation Team will review each proposal in detail to determine its compliance with mandatory RFP requirements. Responses to both Mandatory and Mandatory Scored Questions will be evaluated on a pass/fail basis. If a proposal fails to meet a mandatory and/or mandatory scored RFP requirement, the SFA will determine if the deviation is material. A material deviation will be cause for rejection of the proposal.

All proposals which meet the requirements of the Mandatory and Mandatory Scored Questions are considered Responsive Proposals at this point in time and will be scored in accordance with the point allocation SECTION D-8. D-5.

In the alternative, in the event the cost proposal is scored at the category, subcategory or line level, the SFA may assign the maximum score per category/subcategory/line for the most competitive proposal at that level. Other proposals will receive a percentage of the weighted score based on the percentage differential between the most competitive cost proposal and the specific proposal in question. D-8.
