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).
Lots publish different evaluation splits; there is no single procedure weighting.
- Suitability
Selection criteria as stated in the procurement documents
- Price carries 25–34 points depending on the lot; most lots put it at 25 points.
- “Framework for beds, mattresses and wheelchairs both services and…” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 150 suppliers, not a single contract.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
