Published sub-criteria (2)
- Technical: 15%
- price: 85%
Published award criteria (2)
- Technical: 15
- Price: 85
- Price carries 85 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 8.5 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
- “Bitumen and Associated Products” 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.
