Review and Selection Process Clause Samples
The Review and Selection Process clause outlines the procedures and criteria by which proposals, applications, or candidates are evaluated and chosen. Typically, this clause details the steps involved, such as submission deadlines, evaluation methods, and the roles of reviewers or selection committees. Its core function is to ensure a transparent, fair, and consistent approach to decision-making, thereby minimizing disputes and clarifying expectations for all parties involved.
Review and Selection Process. The Project Narratives of SAMHSA applications are peer-reviewed according to the evaluation criteria listed above. Decisions to fund a grant are based on the strengths and weaknesses of the application as identified by peer reviewers. The results of the peer review are advisory in nature. The program office and approving official make the final determination for funding based on the following: • Individual awards over $250,000 are approved by the Center for Mental Health Services National Advisory Council; • Availability of funds; • Equitable distribution of awards in terms of geography (including urban, rural, and remote settings) and balance among populations of focus and program size; • Submission of any required documentation that must be submitted prior to making an award; and • SAMHSA is required to review and consider any information about your organization that is in the Federal Award Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS). In accordance with 45 CFR 75.212, SAMHSA reserves the right not to make an award to an entity if that entity does not meet the minimum qualification standards as described in section 75.205(a)(2). If SAMHSA chooses not to award a fundable application in accordance with 45 CFR 75.205(a)(2), SAMHSA must report that determination to the designated integrity and performance system accessible through the System for Award Management (▇▇▇) [currently, FAPIIS]. You may review and comment on any information about your organization that a federal awarding agency previously entered. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ will consider your comments, in addition to other information in FAPIIS in making a judgment about your organization’s integrity, business ethics, and record of performance under federal awards when completing the review of risk posed as described in 45 CFR 75.205 HHS Awarding Agency Review of Risk by Applicants.

Review and Selection Process. A team consisting of qualified experts will review all applications. The review process will include the following:
A. Applications will be screened to determine eligibility for further review using the criteria detailed in the Section III, Eligibility Information of this Funding Opportunity Announcement. Applications that are received late or fail to meet the eligibility requirements as detailed in this Funding Opportunity Announcement or do not include the required forms will not be reviewed.
B. Procedures for assessing the technical merit of grant applications have been instituted to provide for an objective review of applications and to assist the applicant in understanding the standards against which each application will be judged. Review criteria are used to review and to rank applications. Critical indicators have been developed for each review criterion to assist the applicant in presenting pertinent information related to that criterion and to provide the reviewer with a standard for evaluation. Review criteria, according to which all applications will be evaluated, are outlined above with specific detail and scoring points. Applications will be evaluated by an objective review committee. Applicants should pay strict attention to addressing all these criteria, as they are the basis upon which the reviewers will evaluate their applications.
C. Final award decisions will be made by an HHS program official. In making these decisions, the HHS program official will take into consideration: recommendations of the review panel; reviews for programmatic and grants management compliance; the reasonableness of the estimated cost to the government and anticipated results; and the likelihood that the proposed project will result in the benefits expected. The Department reserves the right to conduct pre-award Budget Negotiation with potential awardees. If the applicant applies for Level Two Establishment and is found to not meet the review criteria, the applicant may reapply for a Level One Establishment award provided that the final application due date has not passed.

Review and Selection Process. The City will undertake a completeness review of proposals for responsiveness. This review will focus on determining whether or not submissions are complete based on the REOI requirements. Completeness of proposals will be determined by the City at its sole and absolute discretion. If a proposal fails to satisfy the City’s determination of completeness, the City may, but is under no obligation to, issue a rectification notice identifying the deficiencies and providing the Proponent an opportunity to rectify the deficiencies within a rectification period as defined by the City. If the Proponent is unable to satisfy the deficiencies within the rectification period, the proposal will not be considered further. The City will establish a review team for the purpose of reviewing proposals. The following items will be considered, generally in decreasing order of priority, by the evaluation team when reviewing proposals in response to this REOI: • Achievement of the affordable housing objective and requirements (Section 3.1.2), including number of affordable and attainable housing units, level of affordability and duration of affordability; • Community benefit, including mechanisms proposed to ensure benefits beyond the initial occupants (e.g. financial tools, legal agreements, ownership by mission- aligned organizations, or operational approaches); • Urban design/conceptual site plan/timing and the proposal’s achievement of the remaining objectives (Sections 3.1.1 and 3.1.3-3.1.6); • The Proponent’s or consortium’s experience, qualifications, capability and capacity; • The Proponent’s or consortium’s development history; • Information provided in the proposal itself; • Information provided in response to enquiries of credit and industry references; • Information received in response to enquiries made by the City of third parties in relation to the reputation, reliability, experience and capabilities of the Proponent; • The experience and qualifications of the Proponent’s or consortium’s senior management and project management; • Innovative approaches proposed by the Proponent in the proposal; and • Any other criteria, which the City deems relevant, whether or not disclosed in this REOI.
