Evaluate the contractor's timeliness SEH provided all of their deliverables on or ahead of schedule, often turning things around extra quickly to make up for late reviews by FHWA

Evaluate the contractor's quality The documents required very little editing and virtually none of those required were substantive. The quality was excellent.

Evaluate the contractor's cost The project came in about $50,000 under budget. They dealt with issues quickly and efficiently. They used limited staff so there was no need to keep many people engaged. It was well managed and the cost was right.
