What is being bought

Published requirement description

Highland Council is looking to let a framework agreement to provide equipment, minor and major adaptations to Children and Young People with an illness or disability that affects their activities of daily living.

The provision of equipment and adaptations for children and young people is an essential part of the therapeutic support for their needs, and is effective both in terms of improving quality of life and potentially reducing costs for more intensive intervention and care.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 80 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 8 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
  • “Aids for Daily Living Equipment for Children and Young People…” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, not a single contract.

Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
