Grant programs · Award panels · Tender evaluation

Assessors read the bids, declare conflicts, and score them, all on the record.

Panels read applications and bids at View only, declare conflicts and score on forms each assessor signs, and export the scores as CSV. The audit log shows who viewed which bid.

Why evaluations are hard to defend

Grant and tender decisions get challenged, and the panel has to show who saw what, who declared what, and how each score was reached.

Questions

Can assessors download the bids?

Not with View only. They read the bids in the browser, and you can remove their access when scoring closes.

Who can see an assessor's form answers?

Your team, as the form's owner. Each answer is encrypted and signed by the assessor, and DekkoSecure can't read it.

Do assessors need accounts?

Yes. Forms go to registered users, which is what lets each answer be signed by its assessor.

Can we show who viewed each bid?

Yes. The audit log lists every view with the person and the date, and exports as CSV.

Does this cover issuing the tender?

This page covers evaluation after close. For issuing tender documents and receiving bids, see Infrastructure tenders.
