The proposal has several exceptional strengths that will significantly benefit the government. The proposal has no weaknesses or deficiencies.

GOOD The proposal demonstrates a considerable understanding of the requirements and the approach exceeds performance or capability standards. The proposal has one or more strengths that will benefit the government. The proposal has no deficiencies and any proposal weakness has little potential to cause disruption of schedule, increase in cost, or degradation of performance.

The proposal has no strengths that exceed the requirement. The proposal has no material weaknesses and no deficiencies. The proposal has some weakness that can potentially cause disruption of schedules, increase in cost, or degradation of performance.
