The ceiling price is the total price for the particular year. |\n| 2. | a. There is no matrix for scoring the Local Economic Development (LED) Strategy. Can one score in-between e.g\u003Cbr>1 to 4 which will be a positive assessment? If for example one has LED Youth benefits in three provinces, would they obtain\u003Cbr>5 points? The way the points are structured, it is either the | a. It will be assessed qualitatively if those groups are involved and will be scored accordingly, either 3 or 4 or 5 points.\u003Cbr>The way the requirement is stated, a Bidder would either get 5 or 0 points. When preparing your LED strategy |\n\n\n|  | Bidder gets “5” or “0”. If one has met all the requirements in that specific area, would they get 5 points?\u003Cbr>b.
