Published award criteria (2)
  • Quality: 600
  • Price: 400
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 400 of 1000 points: a 10% discount moves about 40 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.

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