Evaluate the contractor's timeliness Neutral. The contractor missed several self-imposed internal deadlines, but this did not affect the overall quality of the project. Any expected lateness was communicated to us in advance.

Evaluate the contractor's quality Satisfied. The final product was not as easy to read as we hoped, but WOOD was working on a very limited time frame. The content was all there, just not in a searchable small database format as we had envisioned. They still completed the scope of work however.

Evaluate the contractor's cost Satisfied. Wood was quite a bit under budget.

Evaluate the contractor's overall performance Satisfied.
