Lots and requirements (3)Procurement structure

3 lots · 2 with a published value · a supplier may bid for at most 3 of them · evaluation weights differ by lot

Every one of these 2 lots carries the same published figure, £481,250,000: it is the framework's maximum for the whole notice, not each lot's own budget, and no share per lot is published. The cards below say ceiling above rather than repeat it.

What this means for your bid
  • Price carries 10 points on every lot: a 10% discount moves about 1 point.
  • “Medicinal Products Distribution and Associated Services [3970533]” is a framework: the contest is a place on its panel, up to 20 suppliers, not a single contract.

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