# Proposal evaluation criteria

{% hint style="danger" %}
**ARCHIVED**

This page has been archived. It's content might be outdated.
{% endhint %}

Proposals will be evaluated based on quality, and this includes the proposed solution and plan to execute. We will evaluate proposals using all of the information provided in the application, and are specifically looking for proposals with both a solution that meets or exceeds the requirements, as well as a demonstrated capability to execute, staying broadly aligned to the [public CIP-1694 roadmap.](https://www.intersectmbo.org/roadmap)

Generally, we consider the following criteria:

* **Structure:** Does the proposal have clear purpose, milestones, timeline, and associated costs?
* **Fit:** Does the proposal meet our functional/non-functional requirements for the category?
* **Impact:** Does the proposal have the potential to positively impact the Cardano Community?
* **Feasibility / Capability:** Is the proposal feasible, and does the proposer have the capability to deliver the project successfully and manage Treasury funds properly?
* **Resources / Value for money:** Does the proposal represent good value for the treasury and community?

### Submissions will not be further evaluated if:

* Any of the eligibility criteria are not met.
* The information is incomplete or not understandable.
* The application is not in English, however auto-translations are accepted.

# Agent Instructions

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.intersectmbo.org/intersect-knowledge-base/archive/funding-administration-archive/intersect-administration-services/2025-apply-for-tender/grants-evaluation-criteria.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
