Summary of Submission

Thank you for publishing this draft for public input. The guide is well-structured overall and provides useful clarity on the evaluation process. I offer a few general observations that may help strengthen the final version.


It would be helpful to ensure that the scoring rubrics in the guide are fully consistent with those in the Applicant Guidebook, so that applicants and panelists are working from the same framework.


Some of the language in the guide could benefit from closer alignment with the Guidebook to avoid unintended differences in how criteria are interpreted, particularly for smaller or more specialized communities.


Adding more detail on the timing and frequency of calibration sessions would give further confidence that evaluations will be applied consistently across all cases.


Overall the required deliverables and reporting expectations are clear and the inclusion of a defined challenge response timeline is a welcome addition.
