(a) The Beneficiary is responsible for the selection and employment of the consultant and administering the contract, and shall assure the transparency of the selection procedure. (b) The selection of a consultant shall be based foremost on its technical qualifications, because its expertise and skill will to a large extent determine the satisfactory completion of a project. Price considerations are often part of the selection procedure as well, but are of lesser importance compared to the total cost of a project, which could be substantially higher if the technical design proves deficient. Therefore, for most assignments, both the technical quality and the remuneration of the consultant are considered in the selection method (Quality and Cost-Based Selection or QCBS), but the technical quality is accorded a proportionally higher weight. For projects where the technical quality of consulting services is paramount, it may be appropriate to carry out the selection solely on the basis of technical quality (Quality-Based Selection or QBS).
