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).
Published award criteria (2)
- Quality: 40
- Price: 60
- Economic & financial standing
Price is not the only award criterion and all criteria are stated only in the procurement documents
- Price carries 60 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 6 points. This one is won on the number: sharpen the price before polishing the prose.
- “IT Related Accessories and Parts (ITRAP)” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 1 suppliers, not a single contract.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.

Publisher note: SUPC are looking to hold interviews with potential bidders to understand different commercial models that we could use to make informed decisions to assist the pricing model and specification for the SUPC IT Related Accessories and Parts (ITRAP) Framework. We would like feedback to gain a better understanding of how you manage your prices, what you think works well, what you have seen that works well on other tenders/frameworks and what would you like to see on the new iteration of the framework. On the 23rd and 24th January we will be available for 30-minute slots for potential bidders to book their preferred slots. Please select a time that you can attend and only where there is one participant against this slot (this means the slot is available). Any slots with 2 or more people will mean that this has already been booked. Please use the below link to a doodle poll to book your slot, please ensure you leave your contact details to that we can send the meeting invite. https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/bkwzVk6b Any clarifications in the meantime should be sent through the portal NOT by email. The submissions received will enable SUPC to gauge interest and finalise the specification for the service required. Please note that contrary to section 1.3 - Communication, there are currently no available tender documents as this notice is a Prior Information Notice only.
