How bids were scored
Quality: 60%Price: 40%
Published award criteria (2)
  • Quality: Inclusive of Social Value
  • Price
What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 40 of 100 points: a 10% discount moves about 4 points. The method statement decides this lot, not the discount.

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