The Least Cost Selection method is more appropriate to selection of consultants for assignments of a standard or routine nature (audits, engineering design of non-complex works and so-forth) where well established practices and standards exist.

Under this method a minimum qualifying score for quality is established and indicated while inviting proposals. Short-listed consultants shall submit their proposals in two envelopes. The technical proposals shall be opened first and evaluated. Proposals scoring less than the minimum technical qualifying score shall be rejected, and the financial envelopes of the rest shall be opened in public. The Consultant with the lowest evaluated price shall be selected.
