in DoD and the services rely on Valid Eval to provide:
Valid Eval leverages rubrics to capture and codify evaluation procedures and process steps, including technical criteria. These serve as a shared frame of reference for all evaluators, standardizing non-numerical criteria. Evaluations result in insightful, audit-ready, usable data to support decision making and display an unprecedented degree of transparency, promoting accountability and building trust in the process.
With Valid Eval, a program can bring in as many evaluators into the system as they wish, reducing the burden of effort and impacts of burnout and fatigue, without sacrificing consistency. The system optimizes proposal-evaluator matching, and removes human bias, resulting in a high fidelity, defensible output for decision makers.
Valid Eval captures the rubric assessments of every evaluator and applies data science and machine learning to reduce bias and yield insights like evaluation ranking and relative agreement strength. The curated decision making process can be executed in as little as 30 minutes for hundreds of evaluations conducted by dozens of experts.
Results reports can be released by a program team as clear and actionable feedback to all applicants. Its web-based results views and exportable PDF reports are suitable for dissemination through any channel. Feedback drives a stronger relationship between government and their commercial support while helping potential partners grow to meet the needs of their public-sector customers.
