- Staff
- Names and qualifications of delivery staff must be submitted
- Price carries 63.8 points on every lot: a 10% discount moves about 6.4 points.
- “Bread, Milk, Baked Goods & Dairy” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 9 suppliers, not a single contract.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
