Competitive Criteria Clause Samples

The Competitive Criteria clause defines the standards or benchmarks that must be met in a competitive process, such as a bidding or procurement scenario. It typically outlines the specific requirements, qualifications, or performance metrics that participants must satisfy to be considered for selection, such as technical capabilities, pricing, or past experience.
