What it takes to win
i

How this buyer will score bids.

The evaluation criteria and weights exactly as published on the notice, grouped by family (price, quality, social value and so on).

Evaluation split and conditions of participation as published; the tender pack may add more
How bids were scored

Lots publish different evaluation splits; there is no single procedure weighting.

Lot distribution rule: The Framework is divided into 6 lots. The Framework Agreement includes the terms and conditions for subsequent Call-Offs, but places no obligation on approved users to procure services via the Framework. Appointments can be made via mini-comp or direct-award off the Framework with specific requirements being provided at that stage. Further details are provided with the procurement documentation.
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 50 points on every lot: a 10% discount moves about 5 points.
  • “CHIC Consultancy Services Framework 2021” 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.
