Collabolutions at The National Law Enforcement Museum
Join Collabolutions and The LAB at Commerce where government and industry participate in evaluation criteria challenges together.
Where government and industry co-create actionable, low-cost solutions to fix broken processes—without the sales pitch!
Addressing a Critical Challenge: Evaluation Criteria and Bid Protests
Poorly written or misapplied evaluation criteria heavily contribute to bid protests, causing confusion, reducing transparency, and undermining trust in the acquisition process for both government and industry.
Collaboratively explore:
- How evaluation criteria can create confusion and trigger bid protests.
- Industry perspectives are often misunderstood by stakeholders.
- Real-world consequences: strained relationships, extra workloads to address protests, and IPT disruption.
- What trust and transparency mean to government and industry.
- Using notional timelines to bridge transparency gaps and align expectations.
A percentage of the proceeds from this event will go to the local chapter of the Make-A-Wish Foundation!
