How bids were scored

Qualification Stage: Bidders must achieve a PASS mark for all PASS/FAIL questions in order to be deemed compliant in the Qualification stage. Failure of any of the questions may result in a Bidder’s Tender not being evaluated further, past the point of failure.
Technical Stage: Bidders who have successfully passed the Qualification Envelope will progress to the Technical Envelope evaluation. A benchmark score of 60% or higher is required for the weighted questions within the Question Set in order to be deemed compliant. Where applicable consensus of evaluators will be held, in order to establish an agreed score for responses. Failure of any of the questions may result in a Bidder’s Tender not being evaluated further, past the point of failure.
Commercial Stage: The submitted prices of any Bidders whose bids have passed all the previous phases will be assessed. Leidos Supply Limited (LSL) intends to award a minimum of one contract for this requirement. However, LSL reserves the right to award up to 4 contracts if necessary to ensure full coverage of the Schedule of Requirements (SoR) items and best value for money.
