What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 30–50 points depending on the lot. Read the split per lot below.
  • “International Recruitment [3339364]” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 10 suppliers, not a single contract.

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