Selection process:

BIG selection is a multi-tier process involving the following steps:
Step 01: Eligibility Check: BIG Partners screen the applications for eligibility requirements as laid out in the scheme document and appropriateness under the BIG scheme.
Step 02: Examination by Preliminary Selection Committee (PSC): The PSC examines all eligible proposals on the following contours:
• Scheme fit
• Availability of adequate technical details which are minimally required for online review
• Plagiarism
Step 03: Online review by subject matter experts: Proposals recommended by PSC are reviewed online by 3 or more subject matter experts.
Step 04: Presentation before Thematic Technical Expert Panel (TEP): Based on expert reviews, shortlisted applications are called for a Face-to-face presentation before the Technical Expert Panel (TEP). The TEPs are conducted in a thematic manner where all proposals of a particular theme are evaluated together by a common committee. All proposals are scored by individual TEP Experts and the Geometric Mean of Individual Scores is used to arrive at the final score for a particular proposal.
• Proposals with score ≥60 are considered at the next step (ESC)
• Proposals with score <60 are not considered further
Step 05: Scoring Cut-off decision by the Expert Selection Committee (ESC): ESC takes the final decision with regard to the cut-off score for final selection.
