                                They have a logical methodology for achieving that
                                objective.
                                ‡ They understand the relationship between the objective(s)
                                                                                 20
                                 and the tasks that will be performed to achieve it.   20
                                ‡ They provide a clear rationale for their proposed methods
                                 in this project; I don’t sense that theirs is a canned, “off
                                 the shelf” workplan.

                                They have clearly communicated the qualifications critical
                                for achieving this project's objective(s).
                                                                                 15
                                ‡ Given our situation, we understand how their   15
                                 qualifications relate to the objective(s) and to the methods
                                 necessary to achieve them.

                                We believe that the cost of the project is justified by the
                                benefits articulated.
                                ‡ We understand the benefits we can expect to accrue
                                 during the project, as a result of how they will work with
                                 our people.                                     20
                                ‡ We also understand the benefits we can expect to accrue   20
                                 after the project, as a result of the project’s objective(s)
                                 being achieved.
                                ‡ If possible, and within reasonable ranges, they have
                                 quantified the tangible benefits likely to accrue.
